Anyone have any tips/tricks on getting the splines of the axle out of the hub?
My car is at the dealership getting the right rear wheel bearing replaced, and the tech is having some issues with this.
Thanks!

There is a tool that bolts to the hub to press the axle out. Even with the tool most of the time you have to heat it with a torch to get it to come out.

Anyone who has ever worked on a car has been in your position, and sitting cross-legged on a concrete floor with a dim shop light is its own kind of hell... Chalk it up as one of the rites of passage.
