Thanks for the advice guys...I do have a pin wrench that I tried to use but I wasn't getting any movement from the nut. I drilled out the stakes, sprayed PB Blaster on the nut every few hours for 2 days and let it soak in, tried the pin wrench and the nut still wouldn't move...so then I took out the punch and hammer and got it out. I know it isn't the proper way to remove it from the wheel hub but it was the only way. Now onto the bearings.
