Here is the situation. We went fishing this weekend and the drive is making this growl when turning to the port. We get home and I tear into it to change out the u-joint crosses. I can't get the darn drive off. I pulled the leg off by pulling the bearings out of the top end. The shaft is rusted in place. I have tried a 12 pound slide hammer and lots of spray, but no budge!!!!! I dont want to scrage the tranny. It was rebuild 2 years ago. Can I cut the bellows out and use a propane torch without damaging the tranny? Has anyone built a puller that has worked well?
Good news is the bearings and gears in the drive leg look like new!
