Coupler Puller

Simple, inexpensive prop shaft coupler puller, for tight installations. Assembled from hardened fine thread bolts, etc. for maximum pulling power. Central bolt is reversed and its head is ground off to a conical shape to index to the center divot on the shaft. Gap was just over 4 inches, which required a set of 3 inch and a set of 2 inch pulling bolts. Total cost about 10-15 bucks.
Disassembled; 3-8ths diameter Grade 8 bolts used. Plate is 0.120 inch stainless.
