    Thank you @South Main Auto Repair LLC & ASTRO TOOLS! This tool kit works great! Just replaced both rear hubs on my 2013 Fusion. Knuckles are aluminum and the Hubs are steel. We know how that goes!! This simple, yet effect tool & method works like a champ. No more beating them out with a sledge hammer for me! I worked as a Ford tech. from 2006 - 2013 and I sure could have used these back then. Did dozens of Hubs to earn my living & had to Air Hammer & Swing on them just to get them to budge a little. This kit is so graceful. Lord Jesus, I am so thankful.

    Very nice. I could have really used this tool last year when I was removing the hub bearing to replace the rear wheel cylinder on my 92 Cavalier. It was the original hub and it did not want to come off. I finally got it off but spent a long time doing so and with a lot of swear words added in. I will definitely pick this up when it comes out.

      You could try just a regular bolt and a nut and if you're feeling fancy some sort of padding so that the bolt wont leave a dent. I've used this method with just regular bolts and nuts and it works great! Instead of a boring chore bearing replacement is now way more enjoyable.

    I tried this with galvanized bolts and nut from my local hardware store. Stripped on me (cheap stuff). Ram 1500 has a terrible knuckle to attempt to do this. Hard to find a flat surface. Anyways used an air chisel and dug into the knuckle a bit, enough room for a regular chisel and a maul. Not ideal and I would have been pissed if I paid a shop to do that. But the damage was done by yours truly, everything mated up just fine with the new hubs went with SKF both side. It was a learning experience, I was maxing out at pads and rotors previously, which I've become quite good at over time. Live in the east coast of Canada lots of rustys and crustys up here commuting. Ever use a hydraulic ram between the knuckle and hub?

      (I live in Maine, btw. I thought my 2017 would be easy to separate, but salt belt rust proved me wrong.)
      I tried this method and every other one I could find on the interweb when replacing both rear bearings on my 2017 Impreza. Nothing worked. The hardened grade bolts I used like this video BENT. I even borrowed a "Hub Buster" from a neighbor. Nope.
      After spending a whole weekend researching and trying methods that failed, I gave up Sunday afternoon and started to remove the knuckle to take in to my mechanic to press it out. Removing the knuckle took about fifteen minutes.
      When I had it all loose except for the parking brake cable, I had a thought. I placed the knuckle with the bearing facing down on two jack stands supporting the backing plate. I threaded the long pressing bolts (I had bought extra) through the knuckle and into the bearing from the back side. Then I hit these bolts with my four pound hammer to drive the bearing downward and out of the knuckle. The bearing popped loose on the third hit.
      I went straight to this when I tackled the other side and had the old bearing out in less than an hour from jacking up the car to ready to install the new bearing.

      Southern Ontario resident here. I just ordered a set and will try on my 15 outback. Going to try on the rears in the next week or so. I did both fronts 2 months ago. Biggest Pita. Only thing that would get them to budge was a 10lb sledge. Tried a bolt then a hub buster. The only result I got was a separated bearing. Then the 10lbs sledge showed up for work. 5 min of angered post setting hits and it budged. After that it was easy. I drove a cold chisel between the spindle and bearing assy. Dropped right out. Definitely not a job if your worried of brute force. I also wish I had big nasty as a backup.

      The real problem (besides the criminals spreading salt) is that the manuf wants it to be a failure. A coating of anti seize on the hub would protect it for life, but, no. That's doing something right.

    these didn't work too good on my impreza, the PCD on the hub was too tight effectively push on the knuckle

    ERIC O and ASTRO tools for the win. Looks like a great tool we will see. Eric will definitely attempt to destroy them for science of course 😉 😀

      The white crap in the knuckle after the bearing pops out would suggest it wasn't going to come easy

    We've been doing that in industrial repair applications for years now. With the cost of a hardened bolt, nut and a small junk socket that fits over the threaded end of the bolt, you can do amazing things using that kind of pressure. We call it a Jack screw. Its used a lot to separate two piece pulleys and clutch assemblies. Cool move. And your correct. You can go to church on Sunday not feeling guilty and with all your knuckles intact. An old boy, rest his soul, once told me he uses a 8 or10 foot piece of truck chain bolted tightly to a stud. Lower the axle or hub close to the ground and flick the truck chain like a whip or a towel and with a couple quick snaps, boom, its out! There's always more than one way to skin a cat.....that is, assuming it's on the menu! Lol. Later guy. Jpol.
