CT counterbalance removal AUTO trans

Hi, I'm trying to remove the counterbalance behind the flexplate so that I may get the engine torn down. I have the 54mm nut off the e-shaft, but my puller does not seem to fit on this, is there a special puller required to remove the counterbalance? If so is there a vendor that sells it?


Thanks
Jamie

Found it, Auto Transmission Balance Weight Puller Tool for RX8 - Racing Beat

I was using the steel hub to do the same thing.... Must have to try harder

Racing Beat, but there may be some other trick. I always removed it with a LTW flywheel attached on a manual car and am not sure other than the tool for an auto trans.
