Easy cheesy man, you need a hub puller or slide hammer. That will not pull off, esp if you've never taken it off before. Go to Autozone they rent both these tools. AND dont Big ****ing Hammer it youll bend the **** out of the hub.

Oh and I always go for the FWD hub puller its much easier. Bolts onto the hub wheel studs and a center screw you crank down on the head of the CV joint which is the piece sticking through that hole in the hub. The slide hammer works nice too but not as easy...

You only need one or the other. Go with the FWD hub puller. You don't need anything to press it back in, the axle nut will do that for you, you just crank it on.
