My front right wheel bearing is pretty loose so I bought a set of new ones and am having one heck of a time trying to remove the loose one. I took the wheel, caliper and nut off and it won't budge. I even put the wheel back on and kicked it a few times, used a mallet, and am about the drop it off a cliff! The dang bearing just will not come loose. Anybody have any helful tips on this subject?

 

HAMMER FIXES ALL! get a flat screwdriver and place it on the edge of the bearing and HIT IT! it will come off...

 

Get ahold of an air chisel with a round punch-like end,hit the middle of the spindle while pulling out on the hub.It should vibrate right off.

 

Okay, I'll get a bigger hammer and make some noise![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

i had to take some heat (propane torch) to some of the bearings in my R. then hammer them out with a hammer and screwdriver while they were still hot. good luck man.

 

I thought about heating it up with a torch but was afraid of what may be damaged or start on fire. Oh well, it's already ruined so what am I going to hurt?
