How did you get the axle out of the hub with out taking hug apart more

[@mtrmotorsports977]

You have to remove the upper bolt and swing the top of the hub out and down. This will allow you to slide the axle out. After the axle is out put the hub back in place and reinstall the upper bolt to remove the bearing. Thanks for watching.

Is heating the housing 100% necessary?

[@mtrmotorsports977]

No it just makes it easier to drive the bearing in. Thanks for watching.
