Randy It may be difficult to pull off even with pullers. On Persistence we tensioned the pullers to no avail. Then with pullers tensioned we applied heat to prop hub and once heated to our satisfaction tapped with a hammer. Note that we backed off the shaft nut quite a bit but left on the shaft to prevent prop from coming completely off before we were ready, Have been advised that sometimes prop comes off with a bit of force and can be dangerous. Others will elaborate

Or at least, which one / what kind would you recommend to pull a fixed two-blade 12" prop off a 7/8" SAE tapered shaft with 5/8" x 11 UNC thread?
