    Rear Hub Removal

    How do you remove the rear hub? I have already taken off the caliper and disc. I've removed the 4, 14mm bolts from the back of the hub. It looks like it should just pull off, but it won't. I have used ample WD40, banged on it extensively, pryed it every which way. It's not budging any. What am I missing?

    you did right. Ive always applied a couple light hits with the hammer and it always comes out.

    IDk, there is a cap on the back that you can remove - try spraying some lubricant from back there and hit it thru a piece of wood.
    God created turbo lag to give the v8's a brief moment of hope.

    it should come out. use pb blaster, it loosens rust, wd40 is a temporary grease type thing, doesn't really break stuff loose

    Mine came off with a little tug and my car had been sitting for 5 years before I bought it.

    PB blaster will do it. I have the same issues when I did my rear disc swap.
