I am looking for advice on how to remove the stub Hubs from the trailing arms. There are four 13 mm bolts behind the hub. Is there a special tool to remove them? A socket won't fit and neither will a box wrench. I cut up a socket and welded it to a thin handle and removed one bolt before it broke. Before I destroy more tools I thought I'd ask. Can't find a thread on it. Does the hub push out from the back with a dowel and a mallet? It can't be that difficult...

The correct sequence is:
1. Press out the hubs. 2. Remove 13 mm bolts and bearing cover. 3. Press out the old bearing. 4. Replace the bearing with a new one and press it into the swingarm 5. Mount the bearing cover and bolts 6. Press the hub into the new bearing. Done. |
