Hub Brake Spindle

Hub Brake Spindle
Trick to getting spindle off the steering knuckle?

We took off the automatic locking hubs, the brake caliper, the brake pads, the rotor, and now we have to take off the spindle. We have to just slide the spindle off the bolts, but its nearly impossible. We've beat it with hammers, rubber mallets, weve tried to get a pry bar in between it and the steering knuckle, with no luck. Is there a tool we can buy or a method we can use to get it off??!?!!

I think you are talking about the hub assembly and yes there is only 4 bolts! Yes some times they can be really tough to break loose- make sure you soak it down with penetrating fluid and you can use the force of the power steering to loosen it if you have a strong piece of metal you can brace between the hub flange and the frame and turn the steering wheel while the vehicle is running and it will pop the hub loose!
