Default Bearing stuck on rear wheel hub

My searches aren't coming up with anything. Any suggestions for getting this bearing off the rear wheel hub?

This is my current idea, I just have to find something to put in the middle to press up against the shaft of the hub.

Bearing puller kit from harbor freight will work...it should be pretty easy. Too bad you aren't in Connecticut, I'd pull it for you...

You will likely find one side of the center race will stay attached to the hub. You'll have to pull that after as well if you use the three jaw puller as shown. A bearing puller would get underneath that race and pull the whole thing in one shot.

Word to the wise, don't use *** bearings when you go to replace. They are cheaper that the other common bearings available, but their quality control is terrible. Buy either skf or oem.

try using an appropriate sized socket from your ratchet wrench set - fit the puller point into the 1/2" drive end of the socket

Thanks guys. Turns out a BendPak lift pad without the rubber cover fits perfectly. Socket idea would have worked more easily but I could not find one that fit perfectly.
