Hi Marv:

I removed the rear wheels on my W-9 a year or so ago. I was fortunate in that both wheels came off fairly easy. One side just slid off while I made a puller for the other side. I used an old steering wheel puller (the three cornered type) and drilled a hole in the center of a 2x4 that was about 4 feet long for the ram of the puller to go through. I then attached the puller to the inside of a 2x4 and the outer ends of the 2x4 to the lug bolt holes in the wheel. The ram of the puller pushed on the axle and as it was turned in, the 2x4 tried to pull the wheel out. Also, the 2x4 stuck out beyond the edge of the wheel about 8 inches at each end so that I could alternately hit it with a sledge, and turn the puller. Struggled for an hour or so as the wheel slowly pulled off. I think that the 2x4 broke right as I was near the end.

I will add that neither the axles nor the wheel were rusted. I'm sure that rust will make it much more difficult.

Feel free to e-mail me for more info, or I could draw you a picture. Best of luck.
