Wheel puller

First does anyone know of the proper thread size for a wheel puller for my 1928 Model 65? Secondly does anybody have one they want to part with? I expect it is the screw on type with threads and a bolt through the center right?

Mike,
I have a wheel puller that I fabricated. It works real good. You are more than welcome to use it anytime you need it.

Re: Wheel puller

Mike,
Which wheel are you trying to pull? I have a "Front" one I bought from Ken (supposed to be for Durant/Locomobile).

I also have a "Rear Puller" for wooden wheels that came with my Locomobile's (same as illustrated on this Web in Tech). It attaches to the wheel and has a center screw to push on the axle,thus pulling wheel off.

I will be going down through there (Orlando) going South to Vero Beach on the weekend of 8 March, returning in 2 or 3 days. Let me know if I can lend to you? Nights (850) 678-2687, Days (850) 882-3862.

Re: Wheel puller

Lordy Lance how can you stand that cold weather? Bet you have a parker on and long johns as well. Fleace lined mitts and heavy scarf, too. Think you need to get your blood checked or stop replacing it with antifreeze.
