Default Re: Removing rear hubs

I have another hub-related question, though.
I've helped a friend fight with his. It was a car that had sat for decades.
On a car that is properly maintained and driven, are those rear hubs still miserable to pull? Is it safe to use copper-eaze or something similar on the taper?


The axle should be dry...and the hub clean and dry. Lubricants will allow the hub to get too far up the taper and possible crack the hub. Assemble dry and clean.
