Default Balancer puller

I trashed two three jaw pullers before I rented a late model chrysler tool from Autozone. It is an OEM brand, #27139. I used the longer rod and put a 3/8" drive 3" extension in front of it, made it simple.

i also used the chrysler tool from autozone, except we turned a little adapter in a lathe to help it fit. does GM make a special puller for these types of balancers?

I used one I bought from Sears. Worked good the only time I have used it.
