Thanks for all the replies. Originally, I tried pulling the 1/2" breaker bar 1/8 turn, then hitting the top of the puller with a 2 pound hammer and swearing. I got to a point where I couldn't get the 1/8 turn but the swearing became much easier. I put on the pipe extension but was too lazy to crawl out from under each time(best pulling angle for me) and hit between pulls. I guess I didn't mention that the steering box is still on the truck. I figured I would have an easier time weaving the box and column out with the pitman arm removed. I had the grill off for another job and "dominoed" this job in figuring that having the grill off might ease the removal of the steering box and column. Thanks again - Scott
