Impeller Puller

[Gabbyg88]

I am looking at buying an impeller puller to make my life a lot easier. I found two puller online, one by
Sea-Dog Stainless Steel Impeller Puller for $44.99 and Jabsco Flexible Impeller Puller for $89.99. Can anyone tell me if the Sea-Dog SS Impeller puller is worth the money or just spend the extra money for the Jabsco puller?

Yikes... Instead of $50-90 I'm thinking something like this along with a little WD-40 would do the trick.

Unless you plan to be pulling a lot of impellers.

Never used a puller myself, 2 screwdrivers and a pair of pliers and a little brute force and out it comes

Spray the impeller shaft with WD40, pull the coil wire off, bump the motor over a few times, then I use 2 paint can openers to pull it out....

Bingo thats how i do it. Then wipe a little oil on the new ones fins and she slides right in

Mine new one always seems to come with a little packet of silicone lube to lube it up for reinstall.

I used the dual vice grip method, oil, bump, install two pairs of vice grips 180 degrees from each other and pull like hell...sometimes it may not be useable as a back up when it gets out but it gets it out...

Two paint can openers works perfect

Lol I wasn't really directing my comment towards you David I actually have done it with pliers as well and that ultimately worked too
