Slip a long punch into the back end of the hub and position it in one of the two notches, (see arrow). The notches allow access to the backside of the cup. Tap the cup out by hitting it on its backside. Alternate between the two notches to drive it out straight. If you get it cocked you'll stretch the hub nose and ruin it.

Same process for the large cup removal.

OR......if you have an arc welder; strike about an inch of weld on the cup across from each other. It’ll probably fall out after that shrinks it
