Hey all, I just joined as I recently picked up a 2000 GTP for 750$ to use as a work commuter. I had to put a battery in it when I picked it up but other than that it hasn't given me any trouble in the 2000 miles I've put on it.
I decided to try to tackle the drivers side rear wheel bearing today as it has been making noise since I got the car. I've done plenty of these hub assembly replacements before including one on the front of a 2000 GT that I had a few years back, but this one is absolutely stumping me. I've got the brake caliper and rotor off and the four bolts that hold the hub on are removed, I disconnected the ABS sensor as well, but the hub assembly is froze on there. I've tried beating it, using a wedge and hammer where they meet up, as well as using a slide hammer. I can't get this thing to even budge. I decided I'd had enough for today and put it back together as my apartment complex doesn't like people working on their cars at all. I plan on taking another crack at it tomorrow, any advice or other ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
