Hey Bigrig,
Make sure that you keep the bearing cup nice and straight and it should come out nicely. You need to insert a long screwdriver ( that you dont mind donating to the cause as the end may get damaged ) or preferably piece of bar with a flat end from the other side, and keep rotating the hub as you tap the cup out. You can start by tapping at 0, 180, 90, 270 degrees and keep tapping evenly till it starts moving, and then you can just tap consistently wherever trying to keep the cup parallel / flat.
The other alternative is to heat up the hub itself with an oxy set to expand the hub slightly - not the bearing cup, and help free it from home by tapping as above.
