Post Dust cover removal on the front hub

Any suggestions on the best way to remove the front hub dust cover on a 1984 911 TL. It has a welded nut on the cover...does P make a special puller tool?

I made this one day trying to get mine off my '87 930. Screw the bolt in all the way and then with a wrench on it, turn the nut in and it will come off finally. Not very sophisticated, but it works.

I bought a 9 dollar slide hammer from Harbor Freight and made an adapter to screw on to it.

If you have more time than I did, that's what I would do.
