SILVER Star
I've tried all the tricks in the book, one of which has always worked on my Silverado 2500HD, and nothing works. So I'm going to try a little more brute force.
I have a large Craftsman two-jaw puller attached to the back side of the wheel, with my 2-1/8" 3/4" drive hub socket over the axle hub. The socket clears the hub bolts and the sheet metal cover over the axle end. The worst thing that could happen is that I damage or break the wheel itself. I can live with that.
The wheel stud holes and perimeter of the hub have been soaking in PB Blaster since yesterday, but that hasn't helped.
Before I go back out in the driveway and start cranking away at the puller, is there anything else I can try? I'm thinking of tightening the puller quite a bit, then rotating it 90 degrees and tightening the puller again - rinse and repeat.
