Well I am in the midst of my 5 lug swap and brake upgrade.

The rear hubs seem to be pretty well fused with the upright. I have removed all 4 bolts as well as the 36mm axel nut. However the hub is still stuck tight. I think that all the years of heat and rust have fused the 2 (if such a ting is possible). The axle moves in and out freely and there is nothing else that I can think would holding them together. I am going to remove the axel next, and take the BFH to the hub to break it lose. If any one has any tips or tricks for breaking these lose please let me know :-D
