If this is the Pelican one it can definitely pull the hub:

See this photo of me pulling my hub from the back.

Yup - apparently the previous version didn't include the part to pull the hub - here's the text from the review of that part from their site and I just noticed it was from 2012:

This makes it easy, needs a hub extractor. Overall this tool works great for the bearing removal/installation and hub installation. I was amazed at how the tool pushed and pulled cleanly. For this, the SIR should get a 5, but.... The lack of a hub puller is a glaring ommision. The 911 has existed for almost 50 years. Why SIR tools can't figure out how to make a yoke/adapter that pushes on the face of the bearing retainer is beyond me. This is really the PITA task, and took several hours and ultimately a rented 5 lb. slide hammer and a 1-1/4" socket (as the hub driver) For this, I can't give SIR a 5. They (or someone with a good laser cutter) need to make a plate, that lets you push on the retainer.


So I take it that you have this kit and can do front and rear?
