    I've had this happen before John...EXACTLY the same scenario....

    I went to the salvage yard with my trusty tool box & scored a used hub from a Trooper.

    If you clean all the grease outta the hub, you can see indents around the back side of the race, where a punch can be employed with a striking instrument, to get the old one out. The new one doesn't need to be pressed in, just tapped in, gradually working around the edge with a copper or brass mallet.

    Don't forget the exciter ring on the back side...
