ABS and TC lights on.

I have acetylene here but I'm hoping I don't need to use it. I have a piece of unistrut here I use for stuck wheel bearings. Over the studs, couple lug nuts on and few blows with a sledgehammer usually does it.

the thing about these bolts that hold the hub on is that they are tight coming all the way out, not just breaking them loose. And a few aren't real easy to get to

A quick hit with the torch makes the job a LOT easier. I would not do it any other way

Before I started I sprayed some kroil from the back side into where the bearing goes through the knuckle. Well by the time I got everything else out the kroil had worked it's way through. 3 quick smacks with a mallet and it fell right out. This was the original bearing so I didn't expect it to come out so easy but the kroil did it's job. I have the second bearing (Passanger side)here that I want to do but don't have time today so hopefully the weather stays nice and I can do it over the weekend.

I tried Kroil didn't work for me

the flame wrench ALWAYS works

BFHs always achieve success, too.
