Getting the shaft out of the coupler is turning out to be quite a trick.
I'm using a large socket in the center of the coupler to act as a spacer.
Then I'm using the coupler bolts to act as clamps and draw tights against
the socket.  I have lots of penetrating oil in just about every location
imaginable.  All the bolts are as tight as I can make them and I've rotated
the shaft multiple times to work everything around.  Then I used a hammer
to agitate it, still nothing.  I simply can't get the bolts tighter.  The
only thing I haven't tried is heat.  Got any other suggestions?  Cross

Found this guy on YouTube.  I hope it's not this big of a pain in the ass.
