Just did mine last weekend: Went to Sears and bought the big 7 ton gear puller and used a big socket backwards in the middle of the hub. Used a nut in the socket as a bearing for the puller center. Took a little effort but the hub did come off. Used the same puller to press out the hub bearing from the back of the hub using a slightly larger socket. Used a screwdriver to mangle out the hub seals. Used a 2+1/4" pipe to press in new hub seals and a block of aluminum to press in new hub bearings all using the same big gear puller from Sears. A lead knock-off hammer was also helpful. Shawn Tobin '69 Midget 5spd daily driver |
