FYI, I did not need a special tool to remove the balancer or the hub once everything was removed. The balancer came off by hand and with the hub I used a screw driver and tapped gently between the timing cover and the back of the hub. I was very careful and it worked OK. If you have access to a Kragen or Pep Boys they rent/loan tools and a universal balancer puller may work. You will have to use the balancer hex head bolts and I don't know if the there will be room between the radiator and engine.
