I make mine by taking a half inch thick piece of plate metal and cutting the center out to match the splines on the hub, so the plate can be put over the splines and rotated . You now have the plate behind the splines. I had another plate and four large bolts with holes drilled through the corners of each plate. Now when you tighten the bolts it puts pressure on the axle and pulls off the hub. Well, maybe after you take a torch and heat the hub up very hot. Just heat it in a straight line from the outter edge inward and it should cone off. This was the hardest job of the whole restoration for me. Good luck, Doug
