alright, I'm in the middle of removing the 5 lug hubs from my S14 240sx SE. I removed the entire front setup, (the hubs/rotors/brakes etc) I'm having some trouble with the rears. I have the rear brake rotor, caliper, and the E-brake assembly off. I removed the pin, and the large lock nut that basically holds everything on, but I cant get the actual hub itself off. are there bolts that I have to loosen or will it just pull off? I've tried bangin it around to try to free up some rust but it seems like theres somethin else holding it on. also does the flange come off with it? do i have to remove the rear axle first? any help would be awesome, all i have left is to sell these damn 5 lug hubs and ill have the money to finish the IC piping on my SR swap.

if it's anything like the z32's, which I'm sure it is, you have to remove the knuckle which involves removing every control arm bolt (like 5 I think) plus the strut bolt.

The thing is that the hub itself is bolted by 4 bolts to the knuckle, and to get to those, you must remove the knuckle 1st. It's a pain in the *** I know.
