When I heat up my yoke, I have a friend keep turning it as I apply the heat. A breaker bar on your half inch drive rachet wrench helps too when you are using the puller!
I've got an air compressor with a 1/2" impact I can use on the puller. And if that doesn't work, I've got a 3/4" drive ratchet set that I can use. I'll get it off one way or another. I'll spray the flanges down good with PB blaster and let them sit for a few minutes before I start.
