Wheel bearing seized on

Are there any suppliers out there that have rear knuckle/hub assemblies?
I have a wheel bearing that is seized on and will not come off with using heat/pullers/hydraulic press. A Mazda tech thinks the spline could be twisted. Any thoughts?

You can get new parts from Ray Crowe at Malloy Mazda. He gives us all serious discounts on stock OEM parts. His phone number is in the 3rd gen FAQ thread stickied in this forum.

You can find used parts in the forum classifieds but read the forum rules before doing anything against the rules.

Bearing is seized in the spindle or is it a rear bearing and you mean the axle splines are seized inside the hub? I have to use 3 tons in a press one time to pop an axle out of a hub.
