If you buy the front bearing puller and OTC927 the insert that comes with
the puller will do exactly that.

Exactly what? Allow the OTC927 to push the hub out of the knuckle or
allow a harmonic balancer puller to push the hub out of the knuckle?

I am curious exactly how this happens too (getting the hub out). Also,
yes/no; you need a seal installation tool in addition to the warner bearing
tool set and the OTC 927? TIA walter bright 76 GB.

Scott with my tool and the OTC927 you can not only service the bearings but
with the addition of a heavy U bolt can properly adjust the torsions bars,
remove the harmonic balancer and ?

Walter seal installation tools are cheap but to tell you the truth i never
use them. If you are very careful you can gently tap the seals in to place.
Its how I have alway done it and never damaged one and always seat fine.
just have to be careful to keep it square to the knuckle.
