Wheel Hub Puller
After getting some great advice and doing some reading up on the Disco3 site I've decided to replace the 2 front wheel hubs. Unfortunately I cant find anyone in or about the Runcorn area who's open for business so going to give it a go myself.
I think I've got the tools needed but I would really like a Hub Puller. Can anyone recommend one and where to get it? or failing that if someone wants some shekels and wants to do it next week give me a shout

I didn't need a puller, in fact I managed to get the hub and disc off in a oner
Probably because the driveshaft had been replaced a few months earlier
I replaced both the hub and the disc, so both old ones are sitting in the scrap pile for the dump

Cheers Sea Raider, I’ve just had the discs replaced and they needed heat to remove the front offside one so I’ve got a feeling I’m going to be in for a fight. Don’t want to be sitting on the side of the street scratching my head

I changed one this afternoon.
I left the 4 bolts in a couple of threads then gave them a whack with a hammer, being careful not to hit anything else.
It came off easily.

I did the passenger side one on mine a few weeks ago. It came off no problem. I just kept hitting it evenly all around with a lump hammer.Kev
