Does anyone know how I can remove the hub from the wheel carrier without buying the $300 SIR tool or without removing the whole wheel carrier and taking this to get pressed out? I'm trying to change the wheel bearing on my 2001 996 C2

Below are some pictures:

The only way to do it is with the specialty tools, Pelican Parts I believe sells a complete kit.
You may find a used kit somewhere.

I pulled mine and pressed out the bearing.

I ended up putting a large bearing puller behind the hub and used screws to screw against it to push the hub out! Worked great and I was able to change my bearing!
