IMO, the fronts would be worth the $80 per side if your studs were in poor shape. I just did all my front studs and re-used the hubs since they had no play in them.Quote:

well i did do my right rear wheel bearing without any special tools, except for a pvc pipe and impact gun but those arent really 'special' lol.
everything went together nicely. i was given all the parts to replace both the inner and outter wheel bearing when i bought the car 3 years ago. i even had a new abs gear! im assuming it was the right rear because all the parts said r/r ______. for example r/r bearing inner, r/r/ bearing outer, ect. i havent had a chance to drive the car since but the wheel spins freely (much nicer than it used to) and there is no more play in my wheel. i used to be able to tilt the top of the wheel in and out, but now its solid. ill find out for sure this weekend.
With the inners you can do that....outers you absolutely must have a press....Quote:

do you mean part #10 on page 708? not sure why you would need a press... thats what the pvc pipe and hammer are for. the axle shaft has 'ridges' built into it so you cant accidently push the bearing on to far or not far enough.
No need for a press, been there done that. I didnt even use the PVC method.
Well, you guys must be supermen, because I couldn't even budge the reluctor ring (let alone the bearing) with a gear puller. It took quite a bit of pressure from the press to break the reluctor rings on both sides. The bearings came off fairly easily with the press (and back on....and they CAN be pressed on too far, mine were and wouldn't spin....they had to be brought back out about a 1/16")

I used some heat and the reluctor ring almost feel off.
Are there two bearings per wheel in the front as well or is it just one? I need to do mine and would like to purchase all the parts I need... Thanks!

Okay, so just to make sure, this will not do the trick:Quote:
