- Attach Plate B 28499SG020 to the face between the hub unit and the back plate. NOTE: Pay attention to the mounting direction of Plate A.
- Attach Plate A between Plate B and bolt flange. Tighten by hand until the bolt is seated on Plate A.
- Install plates A, B, bolts on the opposite side.
- Remove the hub unit by tightening the bolts using a 14 mm box-end wrench in a crossing pattern as shown below.

- By tightening the bolts as specified, the hub should release from the housing normally.
NOTE: If rust sticking is severe, the use of penetrating lubricant (e.g. PB Blaster or equivalent) is recommended.
