So far all of the home made pullers I have seen, mine included, are =
lacking one essential component: the handle that is needed to counter =
the gorilla strength needed to tighten the center bolt to pop off the =
hub. Especially those with a central hub puller set up like a commercial =
puller.  Mine uses 4 grade 8, 7/16 UNC bolts to provide the grunt and so =
I never have to pull more than 45 ft- pounds on the torque wrench handle =
to get a hub to pop off.  But it would be nice to have a handle that =
could be braced against the floor during the torquing.  The goodness is =
that he hubs very seldom need to actually be removed.   Kudos to all who =
have fab=E2=80=99d their pullers!  Nice tool to have on the shelf.

I would ask for some dimensions of your puller tool.

Steel plate looks like it is =C2=BD=E2=80=9D thick?

Size of the jack screw?

The tools shown in the Shop Manual look beefy so any tool someone makes =
needs to also be beefy.

I know the conversation about rear axle hub pullers was pretty well =
