Are you telling me to remove the nut on the hub and the hub will come off? I thought it was also "pressed" onto the shaft
Private message me, If I can call you on this
Thanks

I don't think there's any need for PM or call. Plus I won't be home all day today. Yes, remove the previously torqued hub nut and the hub should slide off as a complete assembly. Just how it went on. Sometimes they are a little tight on the spindle shaft. So depending on how hard it was to slide on, it may take a little persuasion to slide off. But it should come off. Assuming you assembled the front suspension in the order shown in the manual, the upper and lower ball joints were assembled, then the steering arm, then the hub. So reversing the assembly, take the hub off first. Just presenting as an alternative to trying to get the ball joints apart.
