Is there a trick to getting the rear hubs off? It removed the speed sensor and the 4 bolts that hold hubs to the carrier. I’ll be damned if I can get the hubs off. I’ve even tried one of those hub pullers that bolt to the wheel studs with a screw in the middle to push against the axle. I can get the axle about 1/2 way pushed in, but the bearings show no signs of coming out.

Car is a 2013 with about 58K miles on it. Any suggestions? I’m afraid I’m going to bend or break something.

Thanks,
Dave
