What are you trying to pry out? The U-joints from the spindle flange?
Usually doesn't take much prying, but if they're REALLY rusty, more force
may be needed. If the U clamps are off, they will come out. As for
installing the bearing assembly (I'm assuming you have the complete assy
that's been rebuilt), remove the 4- 9/16" nuts, and it pops right out. You
may have to fiddle with the brake hardware for clearance.
