Hi all
I expect that in my enthusiasm I've jumped the gun somewhat!
Having removed my front axle and mounted it up in a vice, I took off on brake drum, then using a 2 legged puller, gently pulle the whole hub off in one go.
I've discovered of course that the hub is in 2 halves, but doesn't seem to want to separate easily. What is the best solution, I don't want to use heat (yet).
I've not tackled the other side yet, as I thought it best to pose the question. I've consulted Woodrow and looked on the web, but all suggestions are that it should simply separate.
I've since discovered that there is a special puller, but can't quite see that this would make much difference...or am I simply just missing the point?
I'll continue persevering and no doubt learning, but if anyone can suggest the best and only way, I shall be much obliged.
regards
Arthur
