wheel stuck to hub |
|
|
can anybody tell me how to get my wheels off the hubs? I was trying to rotate my tires, but I cannot budge the wheels from the hubs! The nuts came off no problem with an impact wrench but the wheels are still frozen to the hubs! Any help greatly appreciated and how do I prevent this thing from happening again.

| Tell me what kind of vehicle. Truck, car, 4X4, FWD? and front or back. I'll try to read this again soon. |

stuck hubs |

| Your wheels are froze to the hubs. First try spraying some WD40 where the wheel sits on the hubs, with a drift, hit the wheel right at the hub. Let it sit a few hours so it'll soak in. Sray some into the hole where the lug nuts fitted. Give it a couple of sharp raps and the wheel should start to loosen up. It might take a few times but, you should be O.K. after that. |
