Wallybaba_2 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 I am a GM technician in a Med duty truck shop and I'm working on a 2007 Mack Granite. The truck needs a new tone ring because of excessive air gap. While attempting to remove the drum, I noticed the inner wheel bearing is seized onto the spindle. is there an decently easy way to remove this?? I've backed off the slack adjuster fully and still don't have enough wiggle room to work the bearing off the spindle. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

felicello122 Posted May 25, 2013 Share Posted May 25, 2013 Remove the tires and get the drum off and you can then get a hammer to the back off the hub, couple of soft taps should do, remove outter bearing first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACKS Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 I would pull it with the tires on,use a grease board,this way you'll get more leverage and once the seal pops out the drum and wheel assembly will come off.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
