1/16 thick by 3/8 thick ring of corrosion crap holding the old bearing in. After wailing with a slide hammer, i put the bolt back in, backed them out 2 turns and then wailed on them with a mallet.
plus doggo who can never pick a good spot to lie down.
Doggo with FOMO

A pneumatic hammer is your friend for these. My problem was normally getting the axle shaft out. Always a fun job. But since I’ve had access to an air hammer, they come out pretty easily now. Especially if you can get a good piece of the bearing from the back-side.

I only had a pointed tool, and could only get 1/3 of the bolts. Blunt or cup point is to be a future purchase.

Bearings are my current most hated car feature, I feel your pain!

A cutoff wheel will turn that right into a blunt tool for ya ;). I had spares, so that’s how I solved the problem. Sometimes the flat chisel style tool will work in between the flange and the spindle. Sometimes.
