Trying to pull my front hubs off and can't get the dust cap off.
Tried large channel locks and tapping with a hammer, but all I am doing is messing up the dust cap. Must be an easy way. I just don't know it.  |

Use the small ballpein hammer and wack it from side to side.
Like others are saying, it will come off. I just did one yesterday. Matt (IMG:style_emoticons/default/flag.gif) |
