You will need at least a 50 ton press - or take it to somebody who has one. W=
e've done a number  of these and we take them to a shop that rebuilds electr=
ic motors to get the flanges pressed off - they told us one particular flang=
e from a TR4 diff took over 70 tons, a lot of heat, and a long wait before i=
t came off with a BANG.

YMMV

Which flange are you taking about? The one in the nose of the diff that attaches to the driveshaft?

On a British car the pinion flange on the front of the diff attaches to the flange on the Prop shaft. Drive shafts go from the diff to the wheel hubs.
I know this because I had cucumber sandwiches for lunch.

> Will these come off with a simple 3 jaw puller? I don't want to bend them.

Mine came off easily in a press; so I'd think they would come off without
excessive force using a 3-jaw.  I also think you are unlikely to bend them,
as long as you quit when/if the force required gets too high.  Go up to 60
ftlb or so, then try rapping on the forcing screw with a BFH.  If that
doesn't pop them loose, it's time to find another approach.

I haven't tried it since I got my own press, but the local independent auto
parts house used to press things apart for me for free, even if they
couldn't sell me the new parts required (eg bearing & seal for the stub
shaft).  They knew I'd buy the next part from them if I could.
