Removing front hub

[Harv]

Right, on a 3 stud saxo.....how exactly do you remove the front hub? Does the whole strut need to be replaced or just the hub itself? I kind od need a new hub so need to replace it ASAP.

Un-done the driveshaft securing nut, brake disks and callipers are off. Just unsure how the actual hub comes off now.

Rep will be given
Thanks

the hubs arent supposed to come off

you need a new lower strut

If you are gonna replace the hubs, you will need a hub puller and some new wheel bearings.

my dad got it off before. Problem was that a locking nut had snapped and the remaining nut was stuck in the whole thing. Anyway.....he somehow got the hub off, got the thread out by drilling it and using an easy out. Thread inside seems to be ok. We've tested nuts going through it and seems to be ok.

Now he's just going to re-fit. We already had a spare bearing and everything so should be ok hopefully.
