Two pry bars. One pivoting on the wheel cylinder and one on the adjuster and
Bob's your uncle. Take the nut off first!!!

Subject: [Healeys] Rear Hub Pulling

Well, folks, went to take a look at the rear brake shoes, spotted a bit 
of oil inside the drums, pulled the axles to have a look and, lucky me, 
found I've got one bad rear wheel bearing (and probably two bad seals).

Who knows the magic on how to pull a hub with only hand tools and a bit 
of grunt?  Should I replace both bearings, or only the bad one?

TIA,
bs
