If it had sideways movement, it would not be stuck :o Stuck is rusted or seized to the hub. Have you not read the thread to realize what the problem is.

Great explanation and advice everybody - I always change cush drive rubbers normally (which is why I was trying to get sprocket carrier off). Now I have to figure out how to get it off!
If the seizure is between the inner vertical face of the sprocket carrier and the hub centre (where the cush drive rubber nipples stick through into the brake area)? Is that where I should apply heat?
K2-K6 - no, unfortunately I haven't got access to a slide hammer but will make some kind of jig

Stuck in this case but good information. When I had a a couple apart a few years ago I had trouble sourcing new rubbers and they still seem hard to come by but DSS has one set ATM.
Soy Boy no longer with us.

Maybe I have missed it, but reading the OP, I haven't understood what the problem was to begin with... Let me put it this way. I know how hard it can be to get the rear wheel bearing out, even after you've succesfully freed the retainer. I've managed but I can assure you that the friend that was standing by, has learned some new words... What I'd would like to advise: don't undertake it, unless you have diagnosed a worn bearing. If you do it out of curiosity, you may well end up with a damaged retainer and even bearing. My warning is well ment. Over the years I have so often read about members undertaking things that left me bewondered: why go there, if you don't have to? If the OP has diagnosed there clearly is a problem, my warning is a shot in the dark ofcourse, that can be ignored. The 'problem' of freeing parts that are stuck, can be dealt with later, when you need to go there. At least that's how I see it. I'd would like to advise Erny, if there's no problem, leave it alone.
Greasing that hub is not sceduled in the maintenance routine. Normally, it doesn't need to be serviced, because the movement is a very little indeed. There is a problem however when the O-ring is not there anymore or damaged. Then rain can wash the grease away. Normally that O-ring doesn't get damaged. Powercleaners are to be avoided. The O-ring can become damaged or even lost, when things have been removed before and no attention was paid to that O-ring. Ihat might well have happened in my case.
