I'm waiting on a couple of missing o-rings to continue on my upper oil pan replacement, so started working on the front wheel bearings while I had time tonight and the knuckles off the car.

Things went pretty well until I got close to the end - now I can't get this bearing race off the hub.

Any ideas? Wish I still had my welder... I could have put a blob of metal to hold the puller in place...

I have a couple of different pullers, but neither one is able to get a grip as the bearing has a chamfer that makes the tool slide off...

FWIW, the BMW version is $100, Febi is $90, Vaico brand is $50.
