Re: Pilot bushing removal is no fun
I just changed my pilot bushing as well. Like you I purchased the HF pilot puller and at first it didn’t work. I also tried the grease/input shaft trick but my bushing was too worn and it seeped past.
I ended up hitting the bushing in just a hair with a hammer/socket to knock it free from the position it’s been for 52 years. And then ground flat the HF puller fingers just a little so there was more to catch the inside of the bushing. After that it came right out easy.
