    Hi all need some help ASAP,

    You need to remove the hub nut to get at the back side of the disc/hub assembly. There are bolts holding the hub to the disc.

    The hub assembly comes away easily once the hub nut is removed, the outer wheel bearing's outer shell will remain in the hub and the inner part remains on the shaft.
    Make sure the bearing shell and rollers are clean and greased before fitting the hub/disc assembly back onto the shaft.

      Is the hub nut the small one in centre which screws into a spline

        No, but that needs to come off as well.
        The hub nut is the large 55mm? nut. Bend back the locking tabs and tap the nut anti-clockwise to remove it if you haven't got a box spanner or socket big enough. The nut won't be very tight.
