Stub Hubs, How do you remove them from the trailing arms? Options

[R_u_dd]

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...

You have to remove the hubs from the bearing before you can remove the bearing from the trailing arm.

If you have a press, set it up and push the hub out of the bearing.

I have a tool that removes the hub while it is in the car, and also removes the bearing after the bolts are out.

It can also be done with a BFH (Big F***ING Hammer) and a drift, but it will take time. And it can be painful.

Any way you do it, the bearing is scrap. So plan on replacing it.
