Take it in for just the pull or have them install the new shaft too? Looks like pullers are $60-70 and the shop I'd take it to is $20ish for a shaft replacement. 3-4 shafts and I've paid for a puller.

Been there done that. Both times I didn't care about the pull, so figured whatever happened happened. Didn't expect the graphite I left in the hosel to turn to the hardest material known to man.
maybe I'll see if iceyshanks wants to go halvesies on a puller. I think between the 2 of us it would get used enough.Yea, you'll have to figure that one out to see if you'll use it. Maybe they'll cut you a deal on just pulling it and letting you re-install.
The old shafts had the brass swing weights in them and they won't fit in the recoils.
Leave them out
Put it then shaft
drill tip of iron shaft then insert swing weight
Do you have a swing weight scale? I can't imagine the weight will be the same as the old shafts.
What shaft in and what shaft out.
Also, are you altering length at all.
Here's the thing. Those weights are very light and probably just a fine tuning thing. Unless you new shafts are the same weight and length and balanced out the same you'll have adjust woth head weights or length to keep it the same.
You're putting in lighter shafts, which will decrease sw a little. A point for every 9g or something like that. Unless you are going longer you're going to lose some.
Without a swing weight scale you're basically guessing though, so I'd say either get one or forget it.
