BlindSight Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 Working on replacing one of my axles and not sure how to get the bearinsg off. the manual I have says to hit it with a brass hammer but I can't get a good hit in without feeling like im going to destroy the seal. Should I go up to oreilly's and borrow a bearing puller or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBARU3 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 The seals have to come out to get the bearings out. It's best to have them pressed in by a machine or axle shop. I've see lot's of hammer jobs fail in short order and you are back putting in bearings again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBARU3 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Did you still need the axle I have? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlindSight Posted April 30, 2012 Author Share Posted April 30, 2012 Thanks for the info! Did that one have the bearings? Will probably still buy it from you so I can have a spare, when are you free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUBARU3 Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 The axle does not have the bearings, the hub does. We have been going back and forth so long...better call me. Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
