I got it!!!!!! Either the overnight penetrating oil worked, or I woke
up with an especially strong desire to beat the crap out of that hub,
but I managed to pound the thing off the car, and get the new hub on
just in time to get to work ;-)
Thanks,

Re: Pulling Jeep Hub
Congrats! Letting the pentrating oil do it's job certainly helps.
PS: I hope you cleaned up the knuckle well and applied anti sieze to the
joint. The hub has to come off to replace the steering knuckle U-joint
(CV joint on this one?).

swing the BFH at the sacrificial bolt as I move it from hole to hole.
