Why do you need to do that? Doesn't the bearing come through the backing plate?

Re: KE70 Axle Seal Install
my bad, havn't touched a stocker in about 3yrs. no need for backing plate or brake line to be removed, therefore no need to bleed brakes either

An axle puller helps, especially if it's the first time the bearing is coming out... Can take quite a bit of effort to get them to budge sometimes, but yes, loose fit.

Re: Help and info on KE70 Axle Seal Install
Just changing the seals its pissing all over the inside of my wheel gonna do the rear brakes and cylinders too just needed to know if i had to press any bearings off to change the seals or anything cause then i would have to take it to the workshop. Id would rather just do it in the drive. Cheers for the help peeps.
btw dont you just crank the drum on the studs backwards and wamo
