Got down to pull the balancer and I'm hosed! No bolt holes my balancer puller and my gear puller can't grab it!

Is there a spcialized tool?

Most people use a 3.5" or 4" 3 jaw puller and pull from the center spokes not to damage the rubber between the inner and outer 1/2 of the balancer.

HA! I did but figured my gear puller would work as it always has. You seem to have some type of spiffy gear puller! Not the autozone type!

Thanks!

Yeah, if you go online autozone does not carry that puller in my zip. To bad!
