Never tried it, but I would first if I ever needed to do such and extraction. The only problem I see with this is potentially deforming the housing...but then again, it's such a simple idea I'm sure it doesn't work...
Using a socket can work, but we are talking a big freaking socket, would be easier to just take it to any shop. I replaced the entire unit, it’s not expensive and you get the updated 997 carrier. One and done. I doubt I will ever have to touch it again, unless my motor comes out for some reason...
