I have a 1993 Geo Tracker 4x4 1.6L and I need to bleed the brakes and such and I don't know whether the manual hubs need to be removed to take the wheels off. I tried taking the lugs off and the wheels wont budge, I know they may just be tough to get off since they have never been off in the almost year that I have owned it, but i don't wanna force them too hard and break something. Also, if anyone has a dummies guide to replacing the manual hubs that would be greatly appreciated, but I really need to figure the wheel problem the most. Please Help.

You are just trying to take the wheel and tire off the vehicle - right? You don't need to do more than remove the lug nuts/bolts on vehicles for just that. Many will stick/rust pretty hard in the center hole of the wheel to the hub area. remove the lug nuts and moderately with a rubber hammer band out metal of rim in towards center to start the wheel free from the hub. When it starts to move altenate which side and it should jockey off the vehicle - then clean up the area that sticks on that an all wheels as you don't need that happening if you just need to use the spare sometime!
