2002 Chevrolet Cavalier I trying to replace the drivers side front wheel bearing hubsixwongs 09-08-2009, 12:04 AM I decided to try replacing the drivers side front wheel bearing hub. I have taken off the 29mm nut and (3) T55 screws. The hub doesn't want to come out and i don't want to break anything Any easy way to get the hub out ? manicmechanix 09-08-2009, 12:31 AM I think you need to disconnect the lower balljoint to get enough clearance to drive the cv axle from the hub. Have you done that and driven the cv out? dewaynep 09-08-2009, 12:20 PM No easy way other than a big hammer or an air hammer. The hub gets rusted to the steering knuckle and can be a bear to break loose. You can try prenetrating oil and some heat to the knuckle to break the rust bond and the use the hammer to knock it loose or you can use the air hammer with a chisel to pry between the hub and the knuckle. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
