Hi all,
 I bought some mags for my Spit recently. I had to upgrade the wheel studs,
to use the mags. I also had to pull the rear hubs, to get the new studs in.
 Well I fashioned a puller out of scrap iron and various parts, for about
$35.00.
 I tried it out today and IT WORKED!
 I used a half inch breaker bar and tightened the puller, then hammered on
the puller, tightened the puller, then hammered the puller, etc.
 Eight or ten tighten/hammer cycles and I had the hub off, undamaged!
 I have pictures at http://www.ljvaughan.homestead.com/hubs.html
