Did you get the hub out? Be careful with the brass drift. I tried that method. Unfortunately, I rounded over the delicate threaded end of the hub and had to remove the whole assembly again to dress the threads after I couldn't get the nut started. Whatever you do, make sure the nut starts before you reinstall the hub.

If I was to do it again, I would use a piece of wood between the hammer and the hub until I got enough clearance to use the slide hammer method.
