Tried everthing including the puller style pictured,with rocking motion, etc. The puller started to bend. Perhaps the newer ones are better. Since the old (30-31) wheel was to be replaced, a soft rubber mallet was used on the spokes close to the hub as possible along wih the slight rocking motion and very gentle taping to finally release the woodruff key. Unfortunately it appeared that someone had strong armed the nut to the shaft!.
