I used a hammer puller and a large socket that matched the diameter of the hub spindle to yank the hub out, then you have to get the race off the hub which can be tricky. Don't bother taking the a-frames out, just plan to pull the carriers and take it to a machine shop if you have not done this before. They can get the race off the hub, I had to use a cutting wheel to cut notches for a three armed puller to get a good grip on one of mine but the other gave it up easily. But the machine shop can do it. Also make sure you put the proper torque 240+'lb/ft on the stake nut once you get the whole shebang back together or it will wobble on the outer race. The whole do it on the car thing is a cluster eff and you will break expensive stuff.
