Front bearing assembly
Was wondering if anybody had a write-up on how to change the front bearing/ hub assembly. My driver side bearings are failing and im gonna replace them but ive never done it before, and was looking for some guidance lol

hmm if i remember right when i did mine it went something like this...
1. take tire off
2. remove caliper
3. remove rotor
4. take the big nut off the center of the hub that holds the stub shaft
5. take a 12 point socket (13mm?) and take off the 3 bolts that hold the hub on
6. beat hub with hammer until it falls off . needed to pry it off with a chisel and hammer.
reverse order from step 5 to put it back together

You may want to considering doing the universal joints as well.
