Talking

A slide hammer usually works well. I have pulled them using a pry bar when the outer race is made out the thin material.

I have never run into a problem removing them from the 12 bolt rear ends which I am assuming you have.

It's the 12 bolt.I tinkered arounda little today trying to get it out but didn't have much to work with.I thought a slide hammer but didn't have one though.I'll try to get my hands on one tommorow,if not I'll try the pry bar.Thanks
