Hey guys, this seemed like something I should be able to find a write up for and I can’t find anything. I’ve gotten as far as getting the hub bolts out and now I can’t figure out how the hubs come off. Please any help would be appreciated, feeling pretty defeated already considering I’m somewhat mechanically inclined and this simple job is racking my brain.

Best to download the manuals from the resources here...
But you have to remove the cap, then a split washer, pull the auto hub, then a couple screws and preload nut/washer. Also pull the caliper/bracket... and then you have to split the rotor from the hub (those other 6 bolts).
 
Definitely download the manual. If you're removing the hubs to get to the rotor, on replacement of the hub you'll need to preload the bearings in a very specific way.
