[QUOTE="lowlight, post: 101860, member: 1579"] I have and older boat and trailer that I just bought. The boat is 68 so I'm guessing the trailers is pretty close to same year. I wanted to replace the bearings on both wheels and ran into a problem. When I went to removed the hub and wheel off of the axle. The outer bearing appear to have been wore off, I actually found some in the grease, the only thing that remains is the metal base that they did sit on that rides on the axle, and it's not moving. The racing plate is all but a flat looking piece of metal that resembles a wire washer. My problem is that the base of the bearing assemble is stuck on the spindle. Does anyone here know how I could go about removing this off the spindle/axle? I have been beating on it with a hammer and it's not going anywhere. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
