If you mean the big (probably 30mm or it could be a 36mm - (1999 has 32mm nuts)) nut in the middle of the hub, undo the dimple that keeps it from moving (don' worry about mangling the nut, you should not reuse it anyway), then remove it with an impact gun. You could leave the brakes assembled and have someone hold the brakes, while you use a very long breaker bar with a socket to remove it. It unscrews in a counter-clockwise direction (lefty-loosey). There are no left handed threads on this vehicle.
If stubborn and an impact air gun is not available, apply heat to the nut, then back to the breaker bar.
