Rear Wheel Hubs

Hi there I took my car to Tire Discounters and they said both my rear wheel bearings were shot.... I figured they were due to the roaring noise but I though it might be the front not the back... Any way I bought the parts and had everything apart tonight wheel off / caliper off / e-brake off / 4 bolts holding hub off - but I still couldn't get the hubs off... I PB blasted it and everything... Is there a trick to getting them to come off or is it just rusted together? Its a 98 with 181k.... Please help - Thanks.

U need to use the BFH (Big F-ing Hammer)and they should come out, there is nothing else after the four bolts to hold them in

I can't comment on the rear hubs because I've never done em, but I used a BFH on the front ones and it worked nicely.

Good luck figuring it out.

My originals are still on too I'd say BFH should work.

People around these parts use a chisel hammer with there air compressors. I had to cut one of my front hubs ones off using a torch!

Part of the fun living in the rust belt!

Thanks - I'll try THE BFH tonight.

Sweet! Who would of thought beating a car with a 12lb sledge would be a good thing.....

All switched out and she rides nice and quiet again. Thanks...

It isn't often that something actually says "No" to the BFH; glad it worked out for you.
