Thanks for your reply...
When I did my 240D axles, there was no need for a puller on the outer wheel-flange or hub. The outer axle-joints came out from behind after removing the center bolts and tapping with a brass-drift.
I did need to remove the diff-cover and pull the clips to release the inner axle-joints.
The special tool I referred to is for crimping the replacement two-piece steel cans onto the axle-joint.

Happy Motoring, Mark
