wheel bearing

[trimmertrail]

I have a blown out wheel bearing. I went to change it and its seized on the spindle. Any suggestions for getting it off?

Inner or outer bearing? Outer will suck since you will have the hub in the way the whole time. If it's the inner, remove everything you can, notch the bearing with a high-speed cutter being carefull not the go too deep and screw up the spindle, then use a chisle to break the inner race off the spindle. From there, you will need to see if the spindle can be cleaned up. If not, you'll need a new one. Usually they will clean up.

I figured it out. I sat, cracked open a yuengling lager, poured a little on it and it loosened right up.
