Get a bigger hammer!

Bi metal corrosion strikes again!

It's a tight fit, so yeah, heat's probably your only hope unless you have an air hammer.

we have a puller of some sort (not sure if its made for a hub or not, but it works slick) go to autozone and see if they have something that is close that may work. if not, just torch it and get yourself a BFH!!!

took 5 min to get off after i read another post.

put 2 bolts back in (opposite corners) almost all the , get 2 sockets smaller then the head of the bolt and hand thread the bolt back out till it hold the socket to the back side of the hub. then use a 10mm wrench and hand lossen them. the bolts push it out using the threads, like i said super easy and didnt hurt anythign (but the cheapie dollar store extra sockets i had layin around)

thanks for the replies guys
