I was doing wheel bearings and balljoints today....

How the hell do you get the balljoints outta the hub!?!?! I try'd everything!

I used heat and a slidhammer, tryed pryin it out.. and using a numatic hammer.

Also, my wheelbearing was SO bad in the front driverside that the bearing froze on the way to the garage where I do my work and it machined down the hub!!! Now I need a new hub assy ill be picking up monday... anyon have an idea of how much they cost?

Thanks!
