As said, give it a good wack, dont be afraid, just watch ya knuckles lol

One side the bearing is cupped and the other isnt. Use a 3/8 extension bar and smack the loose side. It will pop out eventually.

Matt i hate wheel bearings!

ive had to get 6 out this week! 2 from nc 4 from mrs CBR,

two bearings had to be bastardized by my dremmel i cut a groove out to get one BB out, so i could get the balls and inner race out, then once out i used and extension bar and socket to pop the other out, i then rebuilt the groove cut bearing with 5 bbs, and then drove it out the other side

was an absolute twat to get out. good luck fella,

Soak in some penatron overnight.

penatron - sounds like a machine guaranteed to give you more girth....

And maybe a heat gun... Aluminum expands more than steel.

surely the lad has got them out by now!?

nope... Passed the mot though so maybe next month!

what you had them off then put back on for mot? wheels that is.

Try heating the alloy with a heat gun then use some freeze spray on the bearing, You can get it at most motor factors, good stuff as it has a penetrating oil in it which flows into micro cracks that form when the parts freeze, or so it says on the tin. lol.
