This will do me several jobs and I would guess pull off the hub.

I have one like that and they work grrreat.

Be sure to make yourself a brake adjusting tool (I don't have the link off hand but has steps cut in to aid in brake adjustment and a couple continent type squeeze bottles to easily top off the transmission/differential, and steering box.

Use a nice big sheet of cardboard and forget he creeper. Just a big box you can pitch when it gets dirty.

Common sense and money cents from an experienced veteran.

Never have liked creepers, I pull the wrench one way and the creeper goes the other. Easier to just lay on the floor and get in a position that is easy to work from, often that is not flat on my back. Cardboard or old carpet works for me. Sometimes I will put a couple of wood blocks under my head for neck support. If you get one of the original type hub pullers, wait till you get the car so you can see if ring, groove or both on the car. Sometimes it is a mix of both.
