yes there is a special tool to press off the hub. usually the parts store has loaner tools that you can use if you leave them a deposit. it bolts to the wheel studs and pushes on the axle after you take off the big nut. hope this helps

the puller looks similar but instead of 3 jaws it has three holes that bolt up to the wheel studs. yes there is a bearing there but the hub will press out of it. and yes you push on the axle.
