So i found out that the front driver side bearings are shot on my nissan titan..

So you cant replace the bearings, and you need to get a whole new hub. So i found a hub but my problem is that i CANNOT get the hub off the spindle. Tried the removal tool and it only budged like a quarter inch.. So now im stuck with no truck on jacks and cant get the old hub off to get the new one on.

So did i spin a bearing and get it stuck on the spindle? Not sure what to do.. this sucks.

You took the pin out and the keeper off? Did the hub turn when a wheel was on it and did it grind and stop"freeze up"?

There are no lock rings,these newer hubs are 1 piece pressed in. You prolly need to take it to a mechanic,they dont just slide in and out. At least that's how mine are.

That sucks. I just had to replace hubs on my Avalanche a few months back.
