Yes it was hanging free. I was hitting the wheel with a lump hammer as hard as I could and nothing was moving. Even put the hub on the wrong way round and belted that with a lump hammer.

If its never been off it will take a bit of work! Spray some wd40 around the end of the axle tube where the bearing sits, mine had corroded so much it was stuck the first time but i used the hitting the wheel with a hammer routine. I work my way round all the accessible parts of the wheel and it soon starts to move free. A deadblow hammer works well.

Black Jimny's don't get stuck!
