My first try at replacing front wheel bearings. I have read the tutorial here on the BB (thanks Goatman!) and elsewhere.

I'm surprised I can't seem to get the hub off, after removing the wheel, caliper, rotor, cap, and castle nut. There was a thin spacer behind the castle nut.

If I read the directions correctly, the hub should pull off. I have lightly hit it with a hammer to no avail. There's about an 1/8 travel in it.

Am I missing something that needs to be removed? or is it just stuck? I shouldn't need a puller of some type, correct? Suggestions?







Thanks,
Keith Ostertag
