I chipped the teeth on one of the gears on my old box trying to remove it. There is bugger all room under the gear to get the legs of the puller in there.
A bit of creative grinding on a puller might let you get under there easier without damaging the teeth.

PS, zip ties don't work

So you used a standard bearing puller like this or a 3-jaw puller like this?
