gOOD LUCK PLEASE ACCEPT SOLUTION
The hub if no alen bolts in it should be able to just pull off then you should be able to see the axle. there will be a clip inside the hub on the axle you will need to remove. then there is 4 bolts on the back of the steering knuckle by the cv boot that will need to be removed. then you just have to pull the hub and bearing assembly out by hand is rusty you can tap with hamer to help remove. install in reverse

You guys keep thinking we have a two wheel drive it's a four wheel drive, we do not have to take the actual bearing pieces apart, it's the WHOLE HUB, not the bearings themselves, it's the hub we can't get off so we can put the new one on. Please we need pictures of how to get the HUB off each step it takes, we just need to get the HUB OFF not the bearing out, the thing the bearing is housed in, that is what we need to get off and we can't it wont come off, we need you to tell us what the trick is to getting it off, we need the whole hub off, not the bearings themselves, because we have a four wheel drive the part only comes in the whole hub assembly, the bearings do not come separetly, please can someone help us?
what won't it come off? ... axle? ... ball joints? ... tie rod?
