Default RE: TT .46 Pro problem.

As far as the rod on the wrist pin...there's probably gum or varnish on the wrist pin preventing the rod from sliding back far enough.

A little carb cleaner, or acetone, brake parts cleaner, penetrating oil, etc. on it and let it soak for a while.
Then some heat...then try gently prying-pulling it back...w/an Allen wrench w/ tape wrapped around it to prevent marring the Alum.

If you're gonna replace the bearings, you won't need a puller for the prop driver...just put the prop nut on the end of the shaft....use a small block of wood as well for added protection of the threads, and give the end of the crank a few taps w/ a hammer to push the crank back and out. Heat the prop driver first.
