Hi,
if you are thinking of removing them with the wheel on the van ....that
won't work.
Remove the wheel from the van ..
tap the cap out with any long thing ..like the wooden handle of a hammer.
They pop right out that way.
they are captured by the bearing cap in front and big nut in the rear, some.
