Down in the comments, David Sonnenborg mentioned using a pipe wrench to accomplish the same thing. I was trying to get a hub off a 2005 Chevy Colorado - to replace the rotor. After reading his suggestion I went out and put my biggest pipe wrench on the bad rotor and hit it with my 3 lb hammer. Didn't budge. Went and got the ten pound sledge and hit it once and it broke loose. So, it pays to read the comments!! Saved me over $100 dollars using tools I already had. And kept me from storing another seldom used tool. Thank you David.

IT WORKS!!! The rear hub on my 2001 Bonneville SSEI was welded to the knuckle from rust and corrosion due to dissimilar metals. I tried all my normal tricks and even tried a few new ones I saw online. Nothing was working. Then, I saw this video and realized that the torque forces this tool utilizes are all in the correction direction and axis. I went outside, put a pipe wrench directly onto the top of the bearing hub and in two whacks with a mallet, that miserable hub broke free. Great invention, the physics of the tool are impeccable. If I did this for a living, I would thank you with a purchase. Cheers!

My 94 2500 diesel was a nightmare to pull the hubs off of. During the axle rebuild I had to heat the damn things to red hot on the front and beat on them with a sledge to get them to give enough space to force a breaker bar into to finally pop them free. There’s one guy up there that’s saying that you’ll egg shape your parts that way- the only part that will egg shape will be the old hub. Not the joint on the suspension. Weaker component is always the bearings. And if you DO actually egg out your suspension, dude... you got way bigger problems then needing new bearings 😂😂😂

I took an old brake disc and bolted it in place over the hub but with the inside facing out. That gives you sort of a "flange" to pound on with a hammer. It took me 3 good whacks to take it off. Easy as that and didn't have to buy an expensive tool. The hub was fused solid due to winter driving in Canada.

Doesn't the Silverado have a complete hub unit? Just don't do the bolts and the whole unit together comes out, bearing hub and all. My Chevy avalanche comes with the hub assembly and bearing as one complete unit. Undo the bolts, pull it off of, put the new one on, re-bolt, done. I figured the Silverado would be the same way.

@@nickdial8528 Silverado's are notorious for having their hubs practically welded in because of all the crap that gets in there. However, at the time I wrote that comment, I had not yet figured out that an impact hammer works just fine for it. You back out the bolts, then turn the threads back in just a couple turns, then you use the impact hammer on the heads of the bolts to push the hub out. It's extremely slow and you have to go around to each bolt so it doesn't cock to one side too much. Then you can remove the bolts once they bottom out and knock it all off with a sledge hammer.

Then find a solid peice of metal sheet(thick, roughly 1/8th inch or more) drill two holes in it. One to put the threaded rod through it again one nut on each end to hold it in place, with some washer depending tje size of the nuts. Find a solid heavy piece to slide up and down the road but wont pass the washers on the end. Then take the other end of the sheet metal bolt it down to the old hub using a lug nut. Now youve got yourself a slide hammer to break the old hub free for about $15

Looks like a good last ditch effort tool. If they won’t tap out or come out with a slide hammer, this would be better than pulling the strut to get it in a press but it does roll the bearing from the seat rather than pulling it straight out.

I’ve seen wheel bearings so stuck a 6’ wrecking bar wouldn’t break them free.. this looks like a gimmick to me that’s just going to bend and cause a lot of people to smack the fender, like it looks like you’ve already done..

Miraak someone ate a few too many Wheaties yesterday morning or what? Most people are just that bad with a sledge that they’d hit the fender. I stand by that this is a useless invention

FATWONG 36 the issue is in the fact that there’s so much force being put to it where it meets the hub that it’s just going to bend eventually, and most people will find a way to damage their car or hurt themselves with this no matter the length

@@Beandiptheredneck Too many Wheaties? I almost didn't roll my eyes. Good for you, you have sense of humor as dry and uninviting as the cereal. Most people aren't going to be trying to unseize and replace their own hubs. And if they are, they are going to be someone who has enough familiarity with tools that they should be able to control something like a sledgehammer. Admittedly they could be more familiar with smaller, more precise tools, but those still require decent hand-eye coordination and motor control, which translates easily enough over to something bigger. Hell, even a small five or ten-pound mallet sledge could do the trick with this. In case you don't know, that's a tiny little sledgehammer on a handle about the size of a camp axe shaft. Again, if you're someone who is attempting to do this yourself, you should be smart enough to be able to figure out how to use the apparently complex tool that is a sledgehammer. I'm fully aware that many people are bad with sledgehammers. I'm again also fully aware that those people aren't usually the type to do shit like this. Sometimes they are, but usually not. And if they ARE bad with a sledge, guess what? They don't have to use this. So, it's only useless for some people. Other people would love something like this. Similar Example: Some people are bad at riding bicycles because they have shit control over their balance. They aren't required to buy one. Bikes are for people who can ride one and enjoy riding them. Sure, some people will get them anyway because 'Oh I can ride it eventually' then they end up with bruises and scrapes, but that's their fault for being stupid and not accepting theie limits. Doesn't make bicycles a 'useless invention', now does it? No. Same with this. People who can use it properly would love it. Several people in the comment section are already planning on making their own. It's not useless, it's just for certain people. Congratulations, you've done nothing but state you have an opinion, and a poorly founded one at that.

@hubbuster YEA, but this causes the hub assembly to make gouges in the aluminium hub pocket in knuckle, the assembly is designed to come out of the pocket not causing the hub to cock in the bore also ruins the seal!
