I purchased a Hub Grappler back in 2014. It came with a manual that fits inside the case. Several years ago our garage flooded and the manual got wet. All of the pages are stuck together and they will not come apart. I need a page out of the manual to separate a rear wheel bearing on my brother-in-law's Jeep cherokee. I was hoping somebody has the manual in PDF form from the most recent OTC release in 2018. I don't necessarily need the entire document I was just hoping somebody could tell me the disc numbers and specific Hub Grappler parts needed for the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee? OTC will sell a new manual but it cost almost $100. They don't seem to care that I lost it in a flood.
 
Don't have a manual but I just take the knuckle off and pound them out on the bench.
 
Take some parts out and try it? Look for a Youtube video?
 
Nice.

Is "pound them out on the bench" and industry term? Lol
Technical term

Usually the hub part with the wheel studs on it pulls out and leaves the rest of the bearing in the spindle so I cut and chisel the race off of it and then take the knuckle to the bench and remove the snap ring and drive it out. I have used a press on some of the FWD cars I have done.
