mk7 fwd rear hubs stuck

Postby bluphoto » Tue May 26, 2015 9:40 pm

I read somewhere that if I take off the rear hub nut then the hub will "slide off". Well... it isn't sliding off.

Is this a job for a 3-leg puller (which I don't have), or a just big hammer and a block of wood (which I do)?

Will I damage the bearing by knocking the hub off?

I'm looking to change the rear discs and if I can't do the job in an evening - without pullers - then I swear I'm going to chuck it off a cliff!
