I've a mate who cuts them out rather than presses them out. He literally makes shyte of the bearing to get it out in pieces and only worries about minding the actual hub. Gas torch, plasma, air saw etc - all fair game for use. Also scaffold pole and big hammer..

gas torch is the best way to remove these without damaging the hub, once you've done a couple it goes pretty smooth just a bit time consuming
