How is this to be done? We've lubed it, gear puled it with a couple of different pullers. We've heated the gear and tried. Tapping it with a ball peen hammer. I've even prayed and cursed directly over it. Yelled, sang, ignored and even tried to reason with it. Nothing...Engine is removed from the truck and head is off of the block. Please, any suggestions?
Thank you very much.
