On our rigs the unit bearing hub is pressed together and not held together mechanically. The only thing keeping it together is the press fit and the stub shaft. Never use a hub puller without the stub shaft inplace and torqued down.

Start your rig and turn the wheel to the passenger side.
Have an assistant hold a socker between the inner shaft u-joint ear and the stub shaft ear. Slowly turn the steering wheel toward the drivers side and let the PS pump do the work for you.
