Just did this today actually, used two long pry bars to wiggle and turn the hub, eventually popped off. I split a seal in half today so im going to need to do the same thing as you.

My left brake pad decided that is had enough and left the housing and a new caliper was $100. so far I am $350.00 in to the rear brake rebuild... Oh ya I did not plan to spend this money...

Thanks for the tip Kris... I will go and try that...

I used a bearing puller and a piece of steel to cover the axle hole
