50mm didn’t work. Corners were too rounded, shit.
So my 24 “ adjustable would grip to flats from the end. And my 3’ Johnson bar does fit in between opened jaws, so how Jethro can I go.
About this far.

As Tom said, fine threads, left side is reversed, and not super tight, maybe 90 ft/lbs..

So now what? Do I pull the hub with a slide hammer or such or use a headlong puller to get the hub off?
This rear end is not originally out of the car so I’m working without a road map here.
Tom, and suggestions.
Looks like it should be just a bearing and rear seal holding this cap onto the rear axle now that the Jesus nuts are off. But before I start wailing with force, figured I’d ask.
Cheers.

I would use a log chain.
Now how will I describe this?:hmmm:
-
looks like you need a puller that goes on the lug studs and an insert in the tube.
What's the rear end out of?

Back when I was a youngster we'd put an old brake drum on backwards, put the lug nuts on backwards and run them down equally then push the brake drum flush with the axle and jerk the brake drum back forcefully to get the axle out.
I have used a 'Morgan Knocker' (Large Slide Hammer) with a hook on the end and put a chain across two studs, put some washers over the links, then use the knocker to bang the axles out.

It’s out of an Austin Cambridge.
This is close, but different rear end image. Mine has the nut between 42 and 45. And the stub shaft in there over the whole shebang

Thinking a puller too with a plate fabbed up for the wheel spacing, just wasn’t sure.

It might not be a press-fit. Try a pry bar on one side and tap on the other?
Slide hammer may work..
Or, one of these and the right sized one of those?

Yeah, I'm thinking a little pressure and tapping. It may pop loose. Hell, A love tap and the bearings might jump out.

Do you have a crappy wheel? If not you could weld an X that would cover the bolts and put 4 holes to match the studs in it. Ideally put an eye bolt in the middle.
Heck!!!!!! As I am thinking of this I will change my mind.
Make one cross piece . Maybe an X if you are ambitious and then put it over the studs and use the lug nuts as a puller.
Back to my original idea if you put an eye bolt in the middle. then take a log chain to the eye bolt. If you leave the chain slack and then whip it up and down it would jerk it off.
I have done this by putting the hook of the chain in a hole of the wheel then snapping it. You may have to rotate holes.
Can be hard on the wheel but it works.

I hope after seeing your picture I am thinking of jerking the right part off!:rofl2:
