[TR] Front Pullet Hub Removal

[Jim Henningsen]

Yes it does and thanks.  Successfully removed it this morning with a puller.  Next up, remove the timing cover and replace oil seal and gasket.   

Any thoughts from the list on what to look for when inspecting the timing chain?  I think it was changed by the previous owner who had the car 45 years but cant confirm.  
Thanks,
Jim

Jim- to avoid bending anything I usually leave the fan extension on and I unthread the dog bolt slightly.  Then I use a puller against the lip of the fan extension and the dog bolt.  This will move it probably by 1/2 inch.  If the hub is still firmly stuck, I replace the dog bolt with a thinner bit longer bolt and pull against it until the hub clears its key.

Hope that makes sense
