That is a real cool club project.
Best way that Ive seen and used is a large T puller. place a 1/2" thick round piece of steel against the end of the axle, works best if theres a small hole in the center to place the tip of the threaded rod from the puller. Than use to large bolts to hold the bar of the puller to the center, be sure to place flat washers on the bolts so the nut is not pulled against the center. Than using a 3/4 impact tighten the rod of the T puller to pull the center off the axle. 3/4 air powered impact works best, cause using a bigger one will likely ruin the threaded rod of the T-puller, been there done that. You may end up having to heat the area of the center on the axle in order to expand it so it might slide easier. Also when you put the center back on its not a bad idea to coat the splines of the axle with anti-seize after ther are cleaned up, just in case you ever have to pull the center off again.
Hope this helps...........Jordan
Heres another picture just showing a better view of the T-puller.
