Front wheel bearing hub question

Car: Chevrolet, Blazer, 2001     -    Back to Fix-It

Q.I am replacing my front wheel bearing hub. I finally removed all the rusted bolts and now I am using the jaws to gently pull out the hub from the steel casting in which it sits in. However when I turn the jaws the hub isn''t coming out from the casting. Instead the whole steel casting is coming out. Pulling with it the tierod. I pushed the whole thing back in. How do I remove it without the casting. Help.
