Even with 5200 on inside and outside sucked it right out, cranked it a little bit let it rest a minute crank it again then rest and out she came, didn’t even cut the 5200 on the second one I did, anyone need 2 , 5 inch thru hulls with GGB exhaust mufflers, will be putting in for sale shortly

496Blower,

Yup. It’s just your basic gear puller concept. I obviously WAY overbuilt mine, but I didn’t know what to expect, didn’t want to have to take a second run at it, and it didn’t take any longer to build one way stronger than it needed to be than it would have to build one not nearly strong enough.

Glad it worked out for ya.

Thanks. Brad.

Well I did screw the pooch on first try, used a piece of stainless ready rod and tightened it down and CRAP nut galled on threads, got the cut off wheel and zipped it off and used anti sieze on threads and came out like butter, thanks again as the last time I did this it went badly and basically ruined a set of thru hulls.
