that's still a dumb design.
I have a heavier-duty version of that puller that you're looking for;
if you have trouble finding one, post back, I can tell you where to get
the one I have, but it's not cheap. It's used for removing rear hubs
from cars with tapered axles and comes with a "striker" so you can
tighten it with a 3 lb. hammer.
Actually come to think of it I have one without the striker as well.
I'll have to see if it would work on a 4-lug hub or only a 5-lug.
The 36mm socket should be pretty common as I believe older VWs used the
same size hub nuts.
