I have built and rebuilt about 25 transfers now and have has 2 I couldn't get out. I have had a few that were really hard for those I used a small set of vise grips and a few taps with a hammer after soaking it with WD. The 2 that were really stuck I ended up using a press and left them in there place and slowly pressws out the shaft. Use a small screwdriver to spin the speedo as you press the shaft out. One of them as soon as I started pressing on the shaft it popped out by it self.
Hope that made sence and helps you out. Pm me if you want me to further explain.

Ohhh and when you put it back together be sure to put a little grease on the O-ring so it is easy next time.
