Well I finally got my flange out
The ongoing rear wheel bearing saga continues. I tried Sunday to get the flange off without pulling the hub .....but no go.I actually messed up three lugnuts and my flange. I figured out today what happened, when I put the large bearing separator behind the flange and tried to use the lug nuts to pull the flange forward it shifted. Onde side dropped behind the shoulder and this caused the bolts to get cross threaded. I tried it again today with longer bolts.....wow are 14X1.5 threaded bolts hard to come by locally. I got some longer ones and chased the threads on my flange and it came out easy as pie. Of course the bearing separated and race is on the flange while the rest is still in the hub......I wish I had access to a SIR B90-3 tool to finish this job....the rear bearing is in there tight....I have yet to be able to move it using the Harbour Freight tool
THanks for letting me rant
