That's it for the rear guys. Now can someone help me figure out these weird 1978 snowflake fronts? No 4-pin collar on this wheel. Do I pry the seals out? Any help on the bearing stack removal is appreciated. I sure hope all of this is helpful to someone.
I have had great success on transmission covers using a rectangular 500 Watt body shop shop light. I haven't tried it on wheels yet. You can get it set up close to the item/area to be heated, turn it on and go do other things for 20-25 minutes. It'll get spit sizzling as needed in about that time. No open flame and you don't have to be there the whole time.
I think that's all you do...similar seal on the /7 wire wheels. Use something to hook the inside edge of the top hat, either a screwdriver or 90-degree screwdriver. You could also rig up a slide hammer to catch the top hat and then use it to pull out the seal.
And, I'm assuming the bearings and races are extracted with a puller of some sort out of each side of the wheel? Heating again for the front? If so, the tire, tube, and rotor are coming off first.
