So, im gonna answer my own question...talked to a great mechanic and he suggested tapping two 3/8 holes,threading then screwing in two grade 8 bolts,then applying a puller mechanism while tapping the hub with a BFH,..film at 11.If this is succesful..well then i'm gonna patent it and you'all will need to send me 5K everytime you use this method....Ok?
Happy 4th

When I removed mine I just beat the crap out of them with a big hammer from the back and side while rotating them. It wasn't quick but it worked.
