I miss placed my clutch puller that I use all the time, so I went and borrowed a friend's puller and low and behold it's stuck in my clutch, it spins freely but cannot pull the puller out so I think it has pigtailed inside and no way of removing it unless the clutch is removed first
any ideas on removing clutch with out a puller ?

can you get a slide hammer on it?
If you can pull the puller out far enough to get some water in between the puller threads and the ID of the clutch hub, you can tip the sled on its' side and fill the cavity with water, leaving enough threads to screw the puller back into the clutch. Wrap some teflon tape around the puller threads to keep the water sealed inside, and then thread the puller back into the clutch, and tip the sled back down. When the puller pushes against the water it is the same effect as the puller (a good one) pushing against the crank. If the clutch still doesn't pop off even if you've cranked down on the the puller, set the sled in the freezing weather overnight and the water will turn to ice and pop the clutch off, laying in your belly pan in the morning.
Seems I've read a few of the other bent clutch puller posts, so there may be other ideas as well with a quick search.
Good luck!

This happened to me except mine popped off but then the puller wouldn't come out. A lot of banging and drilling.

3/16 12" long bit down the center. Then drill and tap it for a slide hammer attachment couple of hits and your good to go.
well Guys I did get the primary off but I did end up busting it by the time It popped off, so now I need a good used clutch, pm me if you guys have any or know of. The thing I worried
about is the threads on the PTO stub I ran a 20 1/2 NF through it to clean up the threads and tried the clutch bolt it will thread in about 3/4 of and inch then become hard to turn so I backed it out hopefully thats all I need to tighten the clutch back, if not I have bigger fish to fry I'll need a new PTO stub
