Screw the bolt back in the axle shaft about a 1/4 deep and hit it with a rubber mallet...after you get it moving you may have to find a punch or something smaller than the hole in the axle, so not to mess up the threads, and then tap it on out with a mallet

:agree:
Not sure what your project is & why removing the wheel but once you get it off. Replace your wheel bearings and apply anti-seize to the axle when you reinstall it. Should make it much easier next time you work on it.:cheers::chopper:
