Bearing wont budge

Post by RINNY »

I have the G80 rear apart and I have a heavy duty slide hammer but I cannot get the axel bearing to budge. Even heated it a little. Any ideas?

Well after screwing around with the piece of s@#$ puller NAPA gave me with no attachments, just the friggen slide hammer not even a nut on the end of it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I went to advanced auto parts, got a real puller with attachments and popped it out in 5 minuets. )>)

Exactly what I was going to suggest! Borrowed my puller from Advance as well, and it came out easily.
Be sure to use high quality "name-brand" replacement bearings!

Don't ask my why! :yikes:
