1985 BigRed 250es Wheel hubs

[LDizzy]

Hi everyone. Have a question about my 85' 250es. Was trying to replace the rear axle bearings, but I can't seem to remove the wheel hubs, they seem to be rusted or welded on. And I can't get them off. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

The left hub is a stand alone hub. Smack it from the backside with a soft hammer. The right hub is incorporated in to the drake drum. Those can be a bit more stubborn to get off. Remove the two countersunk phillips screws to separate the drum from the hub. You will need a hand impact for that. That will give you room to work at it from the back.

Thanks for the reply. I will get back on it.
