You can buy the "spectial tool" from TSSC in England
 http://www.tssc-hq.demon.co.uk/TSSC.html ).  Theirs is called a Hub Puller
(part #HP001) and sells for about 60.00 Pounds or about  $95.00 U.S.
dollars.   Alternatively you could do what I'm doing right now; buy a
complete rear halfshaft w/ axile, trunion, hub, and rear vertical link
assembly.  It cost me about $100.00 from a salvage yard.  It's much easier
to unbolt the old unit and bolt on the new one.

Good luck,

Mike
