Rivet Wheel Hub Seal

How do I get the seal out so I can grease the bearings. The trailer has been sitting since 1971.

Waterpump pliers with a grip that will fit the cup. Grab it tight and wiggle it loose. PB Blaster, carb cleaner or brake cleaner will loosen the cup too. You can use those fluid also to clean the bearings and races. Inspect the bearings for rust damage.
