Curious, what do you need a yoke puller for? Are you doing rear axle 
bearing repairs?

It's an early, just slide the axles out a foot or so.

Also, you late guys, remember to remove the speedometer cable from the diff!

If it was any car except a Corvair, I would say you need a clutch 
alignment tool. But, there is already one at every Corvair clutch job.

Are you changing the pilot bushing? You should, so you need a pilot 
(blind) bearing puller. Or newspaper or grease or square nut and bolt...

Are you changing the rear main seal? You need the gasket also.

The bent wrench for removing the bellhousing to bellhousing bolts around 
the heater outlets is nice. Also, a way to cut the slot in these bolts 
so it will be easier next time!

Youse guys have fun. I'll still be moving the remains of my 35 year 
parts collection.
