What is the ID of the hub on the bearing side? My takeoff part measures about 34mm or 1.34 inch. I have new ones that are supposedly for a D41/44 and they are too large and go past the bearing surface on the axle. Working on a 49 Wagon with 41 stamped on the diff housing= D41

I purchased your complete drum brake replacement kit and am now starting on the job. I'm starting with the rear brakes. I got the drums off with some difficulty but they're off. How do I get the hub off? Do I have to use a puller? Please know I am brand new to Jeeps and know nothing about them. Okay, I'm adding to my question. I just watched you video about the hub puller. Here's part two, do I now have to reinstall the brake drum to pull the hub?
Willys Jeep Parts Tech:
The hub and drum would come off with a puller HP600. Depending on vehicle then you could press the studs out with a hydraulic press.
