Need help on wheel hub removal!!!!!

[chad]

I am trying to fix my leaking dif seal on front passenger side, i have everything apart except the lower a arm from the wheel hub, i cant seem to get it off to save my life, any tricks or ideas???

Assuming you mean the hub and wheel bearing assembly that has three bolts that go in from the back...
Get an air hammer and just use the air hammer to try and spin it, it'll start moving and you'll be able to get the air hammer in behind it. I bought the cheapest one I could find at Sears and I think it was about $40.

This is what I need removed.

ok i finally got it off, but i keep running into problems!! this project has been such a pain in my rear! so i got everything out but now the half shaft on the wheel side isnt flexible anymore, i think it got pressed in to much. this 2 hour project has turned into a multi day project

Ah yes, the infamous pain-in-the-ass ball joint. Easiest method without the $200 tool is to take a sledge hammer and hit the side of the control arm. Here is a video demonstrating that:

Slide hammer. Pulls the bearing off without destroying the knuckle or the brake backing plate.

Never take advice from a guy with camel-toe (Stacy)
