How do I remove stuck wheel hub

Post by Gene1962 »

2005 Safari

I worked all afternoon to get a driver's hub bearing out of the steering knuckle and it won't come....I used a slide hammer, I heated the bearing, I used the bolt trick thru a stud hole (I removed the stud)....... even if I took the steering knuckle off the bearing is coved so I could not put it in my press..... I thought about just getting another knuckle and I could not find one.........any other ideas?????

Call on it. I've had more than one part, oddball stuff like a throttle cable for my '93 where info online was dubious. After speaking w/ a human actually tracked down what I was after.
May take a few calls but worth it.
'93 Safari shorty, 350 swap
'05 Astro AWD, lifted, 6 liter, cammed, ported and programmed for fast.
'93 cargo, work in progress
