wheel bearing removal help?

[mrpike1973]

hi i bought a wheel house it is made out of what appears to be a caviler or citation rear wheel bearing. it has 4 bolts that are t 50 torx i cant budge them and dont want to break them. would heating them up with a torch help to remove them. also from what i find the bearing is about 40 bucks new is this something i could get from a scrap yard thanks for your help. the guy at the parts store said that these bearings can never blow apart so to keep using them granted i only move the house 20 miles aseason i dont know if this is true thanks for your help.

Why would you want a bearing from a junkyard...and to keep using them?! Someone gave you some really BAD info!! Soak the bolts in something for loosening up such things. Take the bearing in to somewhere where there are knowledgable people, and get the same one/type/that's in there. (if it's a proper bearing) Make sure it is installed/torqued properly, and well greased.

with the help of a torch i got both hubs off they look like cavalier ones any one know how i could tell what kind of hub it is i couldnt find any numbers on it thanks

i found some numbers on the center of the hub 63cx then 006c anyone know if this is the write numbers couldnt find any thing else

What do you mean by "cavalier" ones?" Take them to a place that sells trailer/boat hubs. Not hard to match up. Hub sizes are pretty standard in their respective sizes. Those numbers will not help you much.

cavalier means it was built from a chevy cavalier car i called the guy who had it and said the house was built from a chevy citation. i'm finding that a corsica may also be the same bearing these are a non servicable bearing and need to be replaced bearings and studs are together

Sounds like if you bring the old part to the parts store you should be able to match it up to one of the three models that it could be.
