2zzgtte is having the same issues at the moment on his trying to change a wheel bearing. I did mine and I put the axle nut on backwords and a ton of PB with a huge hammer.

Are you sure pounding it with the sledge didnt just mushroom the bitch, so now its stuck for good?

Yes, we kept making sure the nut was ok by threading it on and off in between poundings with the sledge.

I'd say a good air hammer is next. Please stop referring to old cars as dsms.

I'm not; just saying its no different than a DSM (I've been saying this for years now). It's got a 4G63 turbo w/ AWD, and with age all of the same problems will come along.

More PB, and bigger hammer.

Or you could get a picture of Rikki Lakes butt, and make the hub her butt hole. then call hughes up there, im sure he woulnt be able to resist.

Wheel speed sensors usually become one with wheel hubs (knuckles). At least on Suby's, hence one of the reasons I'm running without ABS. I didn't feel like buying new ones :D

How about a monster sized press once the sensors are off? Also, setting it up vertically so the PB Blaster penetrates deeply with gravity will probably help.

did you try one of those hub pullers that bolts to the lug studs and pushes in on the axle? I find that those work great.
