I am trying to replace the wheel bearing on the back of my Cooper. I have got as far as removing the hub, but I find that the inner bearing near the oil seal won't budge off the stub exle.
I have been brutal and was able to remove the rollers and pin race, but the actual bearing inner (the one which is extended to do away with the bearing space) is stuck on the stub axle.
I have ground two flats on it at 180 degrees apart, so I get get an adjustable wrench to turn it.
But how can I actually remove it? This is the only part I now need to remove in order to fit the new bearing. I have a bearing puller, but have no roon to get it to fit to the rear of it.
Any help will be appreciated! Also, what Torque setting is correct for the tapered roller bearings when I replace. It is the one from Minispares.
Thanks
John
