REMOVAL

NOTE: Review all Warnings and Cautions. Service Precautions

CAUTION: If a wheel mounting stud needs to be replaced in the hub and bearing assembly, DO NOT hammer it out of the hub flange. If a stud is removed by hammering it out of the bearing flange, damage to the hub and bearing assembly can occur, leading to premature bearing failure. Please use the following procedure.

1. Remove the front hub and bearing assembly. Front Hub and Bearing - Removal









2. If possible, install a standard type wheel mounting nut (2) on the wheel stud to be removed just far enough so the threads on the outer end of the nut are even with outer end of the stud.
3. Install Remover (1), Special Tool C-4150A, on the hub/bearing flange and wheel stud as shown.
4. Tighten down the special tool bolt; this will push the wheel stud out of the hub flange.
