luckily, i just recently got an asteroid. the way to do it is…

1. remove the bearing setup
2. take the side with the axle in it and push it through the other side until the nut is pushed out.
3. take the axle side and press it axle down onto a really hard surface.

it might be a little tricky to get the whole thing screwed back together, but i think that’s just about it.
