I take the same big hammer and set the hub/rotor on the back of the rotor with the outside (where the lock out goes) of the hub facing up. Then take a block of wood and place it across the hub and hit it HARD with the hammer. It will drive the hub down and out of the rotor. If the seal side of the hub hits your bench then block it up so it has room to get driven down.

I didn't watch but it was on the news. There was a big pile up mid race so they ended it early. Matt Kenseth won it.

And just for the record i don't think Jr. did anything wrong becuase he beat vickers to the yellow line, then vickers ran Jr below the line and Jr unintentionally hit the rear bumper of vickers car. if it were intentional i think Jr would have hit him farther up near the rear tire.

Torque the inner nut to 50 ft/lbs while rotating the disc and then back it off 90*
The lock nut can be flipped over to get the pin on the inner nut to line up with the holes
Outer nut gets torqued to 160-205 ft/lbs
