Default front wheel hub removal

I have removed the 4 bolts holding the hub, it still does not come off. Do I need a special tool like a sliding hammer? This is a 2002 LS need help any suggestions. I was getting a lot of noise in the cabin so I will be replacing it,the old one sounds rough just spinning it on the car. Also how does the plug for the ABS come apart?

To remove the ABS connector use a small pick to gently pry the locking tab. And do this prior to attempting to removing the hub.

To remove the hub tap the flange area of the hub with a hammer. It's probably suck due to corrosion build up. It's normal.
