I have only ever worked on bike ones, but they were all bonded in, so maybe some heat required?

perhaps not direct application, but stood in boiling water maybe??





heavy is good, heavy is reliable, and if it breaks, hit them with it

Drill lots of holes through the rubber. Once the steel tube is out you can get a wet soapy knife in there and scrape away anything that is left.
