I thought I would share the contraption I built out of scrap to successfully remove the clutch carrier plate and shaft extension from the motor on my Filter Flo. The stud across the top and the 2 foot threaded rod were from an earlier project where I replaced one the external doors on my house...

On the basis that one washer was a good idea, I added two washers and gave that a go. I also acquired a borescope so I could watch what was going on.
