I actually broke the bearing puller trying to separate the drive axle from the hub while replacing the rear wheel bearing. I've beat on it with a sledge hammer, and cannot even move it. Do I have to replace the entire trailing arm, brakes and all? the other side was easy, but this won't budge. Any tips?

Heat it up with a rose bud torch -
Sometimes they slide right out, and sometimes they are almost welded in there.
I agree- heat is a big help- and try several heat cycles, too. Not TOO hot, but since you're
replacing the bearing, you can get it to 500f without any danger...
Don't give up- they seem to appreciate persistence.
tnow, sometimes I just mess with people. It's more entertaining that way. george gravesComment
