1964 C900 rear wheel hub /axle
I'm having some trouble removing the outer hub from the rear drivers side axle. In the process of attempting to remove the hub, I ended up removing the whole axle with the hub and rear drum still attached. The main issues that I have are...
1. Getting the hub off of the axle? Just get a puller?
2. The wheel bearing was exposed and definitely got some dirt and gunk down in it.
3. The layered metal gasket (shim?) that sits between the inner hub and the axle housing got completely mangled and is definitely useless now. Any tips on where to find one / suitable replacements?
The truck is a 1964 IHC C900 and has the 5 x 4.5 inch hubs. I will try to get some pictures up later today to help better identify the hub assembly.
