Rubber mallet don't work for ****. Not enough shock. Set it down on the ground on something and beat the living **** out of it.

Using heat and a large pulley puller to push it out, youll have it out in less than 5 minutes.

If you work on a hotrod, you must have a press. It's priceless

You can get one for about 100 bucks.
