Hello,AGAIN,Ulf!! I did the exact same thing today,on the '59 Viking!! (Small world)! In order for us to loosen any of the bolts,we had to use an industrial impact wrench. Make sure to hold on tight,and don't lose concentration,for a second! Those things have SUPER TORQUE,and just about took my friend's nose off,a couple of times! Luckily,the impact also loosened MOST of the inner BOLTS,as well. On the stubborn ones, we used the 13/16" bar,that came with the bus,along with a 5' "breaker" bar. One of us would stand/jump,on the bar,as the other hit the bolt,kind of like a manual impact wrench. We have had no luck removing the hubs. we can pry them from the back-side,but seem to "spring" back into place,as soon as pressure is released. Yes,we turned in the "Stars". No sign of hub freeing itself from axle,though. We even used a torch,to no avail. I saw a thread on this subject 2-3 weeks ago,and try to use the method(s) from that post. I'll send you a P.M. B.T.W...Glad you still have your Viking!
