Going thru the braking system on the 59 W300 with dana 70's....pulling all the hubs for inspection...the rear pass.side axle shaft came out no problem but the rear drive side won't budge. The service manual states "remove flange nuts and tap center of shaft with hammer"....tried that, no go...sure wish it had puller bolts like the FF.
Any ideas?...have tried heat....pb blaster...chisel,putty knife, tapping around perimeter etc....I do notice that this sides a little different, it has tappered inserts at each stud, one came out (see pic, top of hub) but the rest I'm having a hard time removing as well, wondering if they could be part of the problem...open to tips...Thanks Kevin
