muteboy49, you didnt make it clear if you had got the bolt out of the crank or not. if you have to you can get the HB bolt out, the way Ed ke6bnl said do it, but be carful and dont hurt yourself doing it. you said you had the puller bolted on so i assume you got the bolt out. in that case you should be able to use a bar or something to hold the puller while you pull the HB off. sounds like the bolt holding the HB on in still there.
