With these tools, you do need to remove the rear axel (comes out with minimal “persuasion”), then the tool is used to pull the hub and then the bearing. The installation is the reverse. On the front, the tool accomplishes the same type of task, but in either case the struts, carriers, etc. do not have to be removed from the car, which dramatically reduces the amount of work involved. Nice system; and it has adaptors available for just about any make (including Asian and European) or configuration (front drive, rear drive, four wheel drive). Not cheap, but well worth the investment……………
