Default 47 1/2 ton rear drum removal

Tried to order tool from Winfield tool work, seems they re no longer in business.
Does anyone know where to buy the tool they were previously selling. Is there another tool on the market at a reasonable cost?

Winfield is not out of business. Their KRW reproduction puller remains the only puller to seriously consider. Don't settle for less.

Johnny, I don't know if you are already a member of the Early Ford V8 Club or not. If you are, look in their roster for members who are close to you and give some of them a call. They may have a good rear hub/drum puller, or maybe know someone who does, who would be willing to lend you theirs.
I made a puller that works well for me. If you are interested in making one I could either post pictures of how mine is made here or send them to you by email/pm.

I called Winfield tool works again. They are still in business, but use a different name when called. I have the puller ordered....the price has now gone up to 170.00.
