Dad and I wrestled with the same thing on a WD9. We finally built a puller that allowed a 20 ton jack to be approximately 18" away from the heat and rigged up four tiger torches, applying heat to the inside of the casting. The paint had long since burned off the hub when it decided to give up with a heck of a bang and started moving about 1/2" inch at a time. We darn near used 100 lb. bottle of propane on the job before it came off. We were a bit concerned that it may overheat and weaken the axle, but although it cooked the seal, and the grease was smoking and bubbling real good it didn't get hot enough to burn.
After reading your post I went up to the shop to see if the puller contraption was still there because I might need it when I pull the hubs on my WD9. Couldn't find it. Which translates into: I'll need it.
