You have to replace the whole wheel hub. I have the steps but I need to know if its front or back?

James,

 

I have the wheel hub loose but I cannot get the drive axle out of the wheel hub. It is wedged really tight, I used a hub pully kit from the auto parts store and it striped the theads on the kit

I have the hub completely away from the frame the drive axle is still stuck in the bearing assembly hub. The rear bolt that holds the hub in place is out. I am not sure what other screw you are talking about?

This is the bolt and it states that it must be cut out to free the axle.

The screw didn't have anything to do with remove the wheel bearing assembly hub. The the drive axle spindle was rusty and I just had to hammer it out.

 

Thanks anyway...
