Hi Roy,

I use a slide hammer on these, pulls them right out of the knuckle, even if
they're heavily corroded.

"The hub is held in by three 13mm 12-point bolts. Typically these bolts are
fairly tight and perhaps a bit seized up. The hub itself is pressed into the
steering knuckle with these three bolts. It is therefore possible that during
the next step you might encounter some resistance from your hub assembly... "
