Can't see how you could ever saw those hubs off. Mine are 3 inches thick at the outer edge and must be nearly 6 inches at the axle. Solid disk of cast iron. I know about a W-6 where the hub had to be heated near red hot before it came off. I've not had my hubs off on the I-6, but did take the rims off the hubs. They were rusted solid on there. The about 1/16 inch gap between the hub and the rim was filled with rust. Lot's of penetrating oil and a puller set up with eight 5/8 inch high strength threaded rods and heavy 2 inch square tubing on the back side of the rim finally got them off.
