Default Front Wheel Bearing Rusted in Place

The car is a 92 Accord EX. I am in the middle of replacing the passenger side front wheel bearing. The upright and hub are rusted to the suspencion upright. Can you recomend a technique to take this assenbly apart. I have it out of the car, but there is no way to get a puller on it. I'm thinking of buruning the race out tof the bearing to seperate the two. Any help would be appreciated.

the only way to losen out your problem is to pound the problem with a hammer,use a hammer to losen out the rust just take extra care off where your pounding,as for your pully-all you need is a round end hammer and take off your axle nut from your shaft use the round end of the hammer and place it in the midle of your shaft where the nut was.use another hammer to hit the round hammer,your shaft should be able to slide off,no puller needed..check out this link hope it helps.
