ARRRRGGGHHHH--GM front hub/bearing removal

Frikkin' !#@$@#@%@% wheel hub assembly!!!

I've been tracing a mild whump-whump in the front of our Suquinox the past few weeks. I rotated the tires with no change. I don't usually drive it but tonight I did and it has gotten worse.

I picked up a new assembly tonight figuring an hour to do the job. I;ve done them before so I know the steps to take.

The old hub will not budge from the housing. The retaining bolts are out and there is nothing keeping it from coming out. I used Blaster PB and smacked it with a BFH but it is NOT moving.

I tried a hub puller but it just pushes the stub axle back until the lock nut prevents any further movement.

Any thoughts?
