Replacing a hub carrier

[mustang2porsche]

I went this route because it is the fastest and cheapest way. Did look at harbor freight and other bearing pullers but the hub part kept getting me. I only get 5 hours to do this as I'm doing it on a work day. I also committed to buying a used hub carrier, caliper bolts, and axle nut to do the job so I have to follow through.

If you are replacing the hub carrier there is no need to try and pull the old one in place. Break down the carrier and remove, take it to a machine shop or if you have a hydraulic press install a new wheel bearing and hub....reassemble and have it aligned. Usually pulling the hub will pull the race off the wheel bearing, and while you have it out and apart you might well nip this in the bud for later.
