Default DIY front wheel bearing replacement - Help

I have knocked the stub axle out of the hub (which is incidently knackered) and removed the inner half of the bearing and the inner seal from the hub.

I am now left with the outer casing of the wheel bearing in the hub. I have removed the retaining circlip but cant for the life of me get the outer casing out of the hub.

Is there a special way to do this? (any tips?)

Where's the best place to get another stub axle from? (will API do them?)

Thanks

Craig

Certainly do ! you'll need to tell me how the ABS [ if you have it ] is mounted and then we can get the right one.

Call me if I can help.

Sorted the outer wheel bearing case!

Used a hydraulic press with a massive socket
