    wheel Problems Help!!

    hey Everyone, I have been a member of this forum for a like 2 yrs and never posted anything til now. I have 2 problems:
    1) bad wheel bearings, front driver side is complete but the rear is down to the inner race. Ive used everything to try to remove it. I have 3 jaw puller but I cant get enough gap with chisels for the teeth to fit. What are other suggestions to remove the inner race bearing this without removing the shoes?

    2) I have also snapped a tuner lug in half on the other rear rim and cant remove the wheel for anything. I thought about removing the center cap, spindle nut n pull the drum/bearing/rim off together, but how would I still remove the drum/bear from the rim.

    Any suggestions are welcome. I have exhausted most I am capable of doing. also If anyone have other threads they can suggest even though I have search high and low on the forum. thanks everyone

    all i can recommend for the race is alot of pb blast and keep pullin and bangin on it. same thing happened to me bfore and thats what i did.

    as for the lug...is it a stock wheel? or an aftermarket wheel? because if its stock i recommened heating up the wheel stud and just cutting it off with a torch, but if they're nice aftermarket wheels then dont do that cause youll burn up your nice wheels. you can easily replace wheel studs after quite easily.

          To get the rear hub off, you have to get that dust cap off and remove the nut.

          Every thing should come off than.

          Make sure you be careful of the brakelines, they are short.

            i am hoping that he already did that. i am assuming that the bearing races have seized to the spindle ( not that uncommon considering the age of our cars ) and thats why he can't get them off. let us know. thanks

              I don't know how bad you snapped off the lugnut, but sometimes it's possible to weld a nut to it, and use a matching socket on an impact to break it loose and get it off the stud.

                i think it really depends on what style / kind of wheel he has. good luck

                  what did you snap, the stud? or did the nut itself break?

                    i think he snapped the stud as he says he is unable to get the wheel off know.

                      if the stud snapped then there should be nothing holding the wheel on there.
