Good morning!

So, I've seen the thread wherein the gentleman replaces the Benson with a Lewmar 700. I'm in the midst of this project, now. But, no matter what I've tried, so far, I can't get this pulley off the shaft. The set screw came out nicely. The three bolts on the housing came off easily. I've tried tapping this thing through, but no progress. Should I be using a larger hammer? Is there anything else I'm missing?

Thanks,
David
