None... Or you cAn damage the both crank cases and new crank and bearings .... There is no short cut!!
If you want I get done proper way, buy a special tool.

Re: Diy tusk puller?
Honestly, the best DIY tool will look exactly like the tusk puller. After putting in your time and money to make one, you will have spent what it costs to just buy one off of ebay. They are really cheap when you compare their price to replacing a crank that you damaged.

Greetings:
Honda-san's version looks different but works even better. I borrowed one from Deepinnaharta Honda once, thanks to treating the boys to pizza or McMuffins once a year.
They dug out the part number once for me: the 2 parts would have cost over $125, so I passed and got the Tusk for half of that. Honda's tool has the advantage of pressing in the seals.
Fortunately super strong Wheelthumbs work just as well.
