Ok so I did multiple searches and maybe it is just my lack of patience right now, but I can't find chit.

I have a 05 1500 4x4. Bearing is shot on the passenger side. So here is where I am. Wheel off, brakes and rotor off. Spindle nut off. 3 back side bolts out, but not all the way out because you cant get them past the half shaft. I can't get the bearing to come out. I have used air chisel for a while, BFH's . Any thing that has worked for you guys? I don't have torches, if that is an idea.

 

I just woke up so I'm having some difficulties coping with daily activities right now...lol But you said you can't get the bearing out? The bearing is actually part of the hub assembly and those 3 bolts from the backside should be what holds the hub assembly on? Take a look at THIS. it's a hub assembly. you can get them cheaper, but they still run on average of $100+ each.

 

the knuckle needs to be separated from the upper ball joint and the tie rod end. The knuckle will then tip towards you and allow you to remove the 3 bolts holding the bearing in place. Usuallythe bearings need alot of finesse to get out cause they are so corroded in. I had to use the back of a claw hammer to get my last hub out. I pounded on the front of the hammer with another hammer and it worked pretty well.

 

All i have ever done was use lots of P-oil and a big hammer. Just gotta work your way around is all.

 

I got it off, just beat the crap out of it and it finally broke loose. Solid front axle is a lot easier to get off. Thanks for the replies.
