Perhaps you could just undo the balljoints, tierod, and leave the caliper on the car and carry the whole thing in. If you were anywhere near here, I'd do the press work for you. Unless it's a strut in which case same point applies with different details. Take the hub with you, get it out of the car, and whale away on it with something heavy, at an angle that's conducive to that sort of work.
