Abstract: A wheel assembly removal apparatus for use in the automotive maintenance and repair industry. The apparatus is adapted to remove a wheel assembly, and components thereof that may have become seized together, from a vehicle chassis for maintenance and repair while minimizing time and cost, and the possibility for damage to the assembly. The wheel assembly removal apparatus preferably incorporates, among other elements, a slide hammer assembly that includes a hammer secured to a hollow slide tube that is received on a slide shaft that also may incorporate a hammer stop near a distal end and a distally projecting support extension. A coupler is formed at a proximal end of the slide shaft and releasably engages an interchangeable rotor securing tool and or an axle impact bar. The interchangeable rotor securing tool attaches to the coupler and to a wheel assembly or rim mounting surface at the proximal end.
