Does anyone know if/how to disassemble the hub assembly?

[BryanH]

I toasted the hub assembly carrier on my 02 F350 driver side. I took it apart slipped the hub out removed it from the knuckle and have about 1/2 inch play in the inner bearing. (Large one not small one you can see) Ford wants $450 because it is only sold as an entire assembly.
I just wanted to know if there is a trick or way to disassemble and remove the bearing, Maybe match the bearing and reassemble.

Yes I know it clearly states on the carrier " Do not disassemble". But before I look for this part I want to make sure there is not a trick I can pull off.
If not I am now looking for this part wholesale, Any thoughts.

Thanks y'all

Bryan-

I just did these on my 00. After the first one I tried to figure out a way to rebuild it, even asked around some machininists and mechanics. They are not rebuildable. I got my replacements from NAPA, my NAPA guy always gives me good deals, got them for $340/ea. Further, they do not want a core return, telling me they are not even rebuilable with heavy shop equipment. Good luck to you.
