I'm trying to change the dust cover for rear brakes which requires removing the rear hub. I've undone the centre nut and have tried a puller on the hub but it's not budging and I don't want to put too much pressure on hub. Is there something else I should be doing in order to remove hub or should it just pull off once centre nut is removed.
Thanks in advance for any advice. If you like it, who cares what other people think

As far as I can see from RAVE it needs a puller to remove the hub.

"16. Fit centre screw LRT-60-030/3 to LRT-60-030/
1 and fit to hub with spacer LRT-60-030/2.
Secure with nuts LRT-60-030/5.
17. Tighten centre screw to press drive shaft from
flange.
18. Remove tools." John

I have taken the disc and all the hand brake bits off so all I'm left with is the hub, looks like it should just slide of the spline but it's not happening If you like it, who cares what other people think

See above. I was typing at same time as you. John

Thanks for that weegie, so there is nothing else holding it on? I guess I need to up the effort on the puller. If you like it, who cares what other people think

You can't pull the drive flange off with the hub still on the car, you need to remove the drive shaft which is an exact fit in the flange and very tight, you then remove the whole hub and get a massive press to press the drive flange from the hub, this will wreck the bearing if you manage to do it. After a new bearing and more swearing It's then a pain getting the driveshaft back in as you have nothing to hammer...

I think there are three or four specific tool JLR use to do this job and I'd say it's neigh on impossible to do it at home without them...

It's a total nightmare changing the back plate...

Best option is to cut the new backplate in half, weld or rivet on two tabs, and put it on in two pieces...

Someone on here did it a while ago and did some pictures...  Pete
