    Have a question about the best way to press out the hub from the steering knuckle - seems so awkward to get it in the shop press - no good surfaces to support it up off the “table” of the press. And suggestions other then getting creative or is there another way to get it apart? Other than just buying replacement loaded knuckles and that expense !

    When I encounter problems like yours, I just take it to a local shop and they will do it for $20. I don’t have a press though.
