Has the inner race come off the bearing and its still stuck to the flange? If so you need a knife edge bearing puller my friend.

you need to hammer out the middle of the bearing to get hub out then press the rest out with hydraulic press then press new one back in then press hub back in.

@ a push if you cant get hold of a press get a big socket that fits the outer edge of the bearing n stand it on blocks of wood so its clear underneath the hub n jus twat it with a small sledge hammer i had to do it that way @ work when our press bust n it is doable did 2 fronts on an astra
