it comes out without removing the hub!! (are you using a haynes manual?)

Some are easier than others, but if having problems, give it a whack with a hammer! Unlike the rear screen ;-) this is a really good way to cure it :D

But it may actually be easier to just pop the hub off.

I've never found it that difficult to use a hammer for a split second.

Sometimes they still don't want to come out and play!

I guess I've been lucky on my 15 Minors - they all came out OK.
