I have a 3 jaw puller but read here that using this method separates the dust cover from the hub or something along those lines, that requires removing the cover permanently or tack welding it.

Just as a side note, has anyone tried using a 3 jaw puller on the hub to push the axle shaft out and in towards the car from the center after removing the nut?
i've been reading a lot of wheel bearing DIYs lately since I think I have to do both of my fronts (NYC miles before I picked up the car), and one of them mentioned popping the axle inwards using the 3 jaw puller, before starting to pull the hub out of the car.
