The snap ring that holds the hub assembly itself was broken where you're supposed to grab it with the pliers on both sides, so we had to cut the housing off of it. We also had the race from the blown bearing freeze to the spindle which you can see in the background. we bought another spindle from a wrecking yard, but couldn't get the bad bearing out of it. We ended up cutting the race off the old spindle with a blow torch, luckily without ruining the bearing inside of it.
