There was not enough room to get any gear puller we had on it, but the one BaneBots sells might have fit. We clamped the output shaft in a vise, put a cressent wrench on the "D" of the sun gear, and worked it back and forth to loosen it a little. Then a second person pried up between the carrier plate and the sun gear with two screw drivers (but not so hard so as to bend the carrier plate) while the first continued to work the sun gear back and forth.
