Correct, I cant get the aluminum hex nut off for some reason. I loosened all four bolts and took the puller lever arm off in hopes of pushing it through the other way with no luck. Tried the mallet before to no avail. Not sure why it would have been that tight. I actually tried after the mallet using my electric impact wrench to break it and it started to round the hex a bit from the impact without doing anything. Wondering if a little heat would help it. I am not a gorilla and typically tighten things to spec with a torque wrench, so I am not sure how it would have happened.
