Just wondered if anyone had removed one without destorying it? :roll:

Noticed the other day the rear hub carrier's were looking a bit ruff so ive cleaned them up and painted them with some hammerite... looks better but if it wasn't for that pesky ABS sensor id have them shot blast n powder coated! 8)

Cheers, Bri.

from experience there much easier to take out with the hub off. find a suitable size socket and tap gently out from the underside, open end of socket over hte metal tip. lots and lots of WD40 too. gotta treat them like a baby. Harder to put back in thou, u can only tap the top gently for so long......................lol before thecheap french plastic shatters into a million bits.
