You say that won't mess up the bearing? Mr. Hunter says just yank it out. Using what? A pair of vice grips? I think I'll get a piece of pipe with a flange to catch on the seal and then yank it up. If that doesn't work, I'll try using the nut, although I am somewhat concerned it would do something to the bearing. Sorry for my ignorance and thanks for the advice.
Buy the bearing kit = use the nut to rip the bearing/seal out, because the kit has two new race and bearing.
