Mulisha,

Ooops! good thing you checked then huhSmile I hope you didn't damage anything by putting so much stress on the axles and bearings...

btw, my moto when tinkering with the car:
If something doesn't come off easy then either:
- I'm doing it wrong
- I'm not using the right tool
- Something rusted like hell
- Someone fastened it with some glue stuff
Only the last two reason warrent the use of accesive force.

9 out of 10 times something seriously stuck will come of very easilly when you figure out how it should be done. I never apply great force until I've doublechecked with a manual or a person that I should be doing it this way. So far the only things I really needed to use accesive force for where:
- getting my half axles out of my axle for the first time (and in part this was due to not using the right tool namely a slide hammer, in part because the bearings were stuck due to a little bit of rust)
- taking the rear suspention appart on my RX7 (the bolts on the calipers where locktited and rusted and needed to be drilled out, and for the rear hub I used the wrong tool. an airwrench does mirracles on a car, best thing I've ever bought)

Greetz,
