Default Wheel Bearing Removal

I finally got the hub removed my Series 2 and now I'm having trouble removing the bearings from the hub. What's the trick? The outer bearing came right out but the race is still in the hub and the inner bearing won't move. Do I need to remove the seal looking thing behind the inner bearing and drive it out that way? How do I remove that?

Sorry it's not about a Disco but the "other LR" section doesn't get visited very often. And I'm working with the same technology as the Disco axles, just 40 years older.

Front:
Remove the hub, brake backing plate, then stub axle. Pull out the half shaft.

Rear:
Undo the drive flange bolts and pull out the half shaft.

If you're replacing the hub bearings also replace the race.
If you're not replacing them, the bearings need to be kept paired with their respective races.
