gray1st Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 I'm hopeful for a little advice, I'm half way through replacing the wheel hub assembly on my Z. I'm as far as taking the brake disc off, and the 4 internal 17mm Bolts on the hub carrier. BUT... for the life of me, I can't get the existing hub assembly out.... I've tried leverage, mallets, even trying to force the two apart with a small chissel..to no avail.. Has anyone done this themselves, and if so any advice...and please don't say the existing hub assembly fell out.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DontPanic Posted June 12, 2010 Share Posted June 12, 2010 I put a couple of the bolts back in (not all the way) and tapped them "gently'ish" with a hammer. This was sufficient to loosen the hub. Removed the bolts and slipped it off. Hope this helps Cheers Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
