So im doing a 5 lug swap and the front hubs were a piece of cake. Now im at the rears trying to take off the hub. From the "how tos" on this forum it says just to put it in gear and have the e brake (common sense). When i start turning my breaker bar the axle moves. Idk if im going to need a torque gun but i thought a breaker bar would do? please i need help

Put the wheels back on the car with the center cap off, Lower the car to the floor. Then grab your torque bar and you will be able to loosen the nut, once you get both sides loose you can then raise the car back up and you will be able to continue.

Where you able to get the hubs out of the rear knuckles? I just did this on my vert few weeks back and I bought a press to remove them.
