Well what I thought was going to take 20 minutes to change, took 2 hours and a lot of cutting with a torche! Had to replace the CV axel too, since the heat boiled out the grease and the sledge destroyed the end of it. I have done a multitude of these and this one has been the worst!

Omg…It looks like you had to call in Mr. T on that one. “I pity the wheel bearing that messes with me!” :th_skull:
 


Did you get a chance to replace your squeeky wheel bearing?

Like I said in my old post (Ill be up at school for 4 more weeks), got 9 days left, not moving the car until the trip home then right to work on replacing it. I hope I wont have to resort to this?

Can you think of anything that you did during this install that would have caused you to have to resort to cutting?, or did this just simply happen itself?
 


They look right. I have never had an axle seize that bad. Normally the BFH or an air hammer will loosen it right up.
