[s-cars] Wheel Bearing tool?

[Tom Green]

James,

I guess I am a little slow, but I can't figure out how to remove the  
axle
hub with this tool, or how it can be used until the hub is out of the  
way.
And then, how to get the hub back in the bearing, all this while the  
strut
is still on the vehicle.

This tool sounds like a great time saver. Can you help with a few hints?

Tom
