    Bearing/gear pullers

    Re: Bearing/gear pullers

    Do you mean the inner races off the stub axle or pulling the stub out of the bearing in the hub?

    Easiest way to get the inner races off is grind it with a slitting disc, otherwise a press with a few odds and sods is best for getting the hubs apart and brearings out, u can pick up an old press pretty cheap

    I just carefully grind the inner race off, miles easier than struggling to pull it off.
