Default Bearing removal

Does anyone have any tricks for getting the hub seperated from the knuckle? Then from there the bearing?

i don't remember a black side, but it was a few years ago when I did mine. if its not reassembled like it was when you took it off the vehicle, then you didn't do something right.

The black side is the sealed side. Assuming it was out before, that's because the elements can get at the backside of it. The inside is protected... If there's no seal against the elements, it won't last very long.
