Working on smacking it out with a hammer. My pancake compressor is just too puny. It gives like 1/2 the cfm my impact needs

That sob was RUSTED. Soaking in pb blaster for an hour really helped break it loose.

No I just have to get that other wheel bearing off somehow and do it all over again than it's paint time!

good luck getting the new ones back on! It was such a pain for me, but luckily the kit I rented from advance auto had adapters to install the joints, and they worked flawlessly.

Do you have an air hammer with the pointed chisel? If you do un thread the bolts a bit and take the chisel to the head of the bolt. Try to stay directly in the center as much as possible. It should pop the hub loose.
