Front Bearing seized onto Stub axle

Post by thommo_97 »

I am replacing the Bearings on the front end of my gq and have found that the front bearing seems to be seized on to the stub axle on one side and I cannot get the hub off. any one got any ideas how to remove it. have tried a puller, etc.

undo the swivel seals and kingpins and remove the whole lot including the swivel housing, then get it in a press.

the stub will be rooted so see if you can find a whole replacement side from a wrecker and put your new bearing into that.

How often do you 4x4. Maybe the roller bearing is seized but not the inner or outer bearing to the axle. Have you missed undoing something. Maybe a circlip!

re-read what you said, does the hub still spin? Is the disk still on the hub?

Mine just needed to be cracked, crow bar to the ground between the disk and diff.

My inner wheel bearing seized to the stub axle and with a bit of prying, the hub assembly came off leaving the bearing behind. I smashed the bearing then delicately cut the ring seized to the stub with a grinder.
