HPFP Gear Removal

[MS1]

I'm replacing my High Pressure Fuel Pump in my '08 6.4 and for the life of me I can't get this damn gear off of the old fuel pump (to attach to the new pump).

Yes, the nut is removed. Is the gear pressed-on somehow? I stuck it in the freezer overnight and tried again to no avail.

Is there a trick? Thank you in advance for any insight.

Is this not the 2nd thread of this issue we've had in the last month? LOL

2 Pry bars inbetween the pump and housing. 2 whacks.... Never ever had one not come off.
