Front axle cracked\r\bent hub, drum, and rotor and cracked strut

front wheel bearing is pressed into hub and has retaining clip on rear and then cv axle shaft comes through center and has a nut and keeper pin. Rule of thumb is to replace both front wheel bearings at same time. raise front of vehicle place on jackstands for safety remove front wheels remove brake calipers remove front rotors and cv axles remove steering hub assy from lower ball joint,tie rod end and struts take hub to shop and have bearing pressed out have new bearings pressed in reassemble front wheels in reverse order of disassembly.

Symptom: Brake Pedal Pulsates Change When: Braking Change Where: Passenger Compartment Change -->
Priority Action Part Type Cause 1 Inspect Brake Drum Specs Brake Drum Out of Adjustment, Out of Round, or Cracked. 2 Inspect Brake Drum Unevenly Worn or Out of Round Brake Drum(s). 3 Inspect Brake Rotor Incorrectly Machined Brake Rotor. 4 Inspect Wheel Bearing-Front Incorrectly Tightened or Installed Wheel Bearing. 5 Inspect Wheel Bearing-Rear Incorrectly Tightened or Installed Wheel Bearing. 6 Inspect Wheel Nut Loose, Worn, or Damaged Wheel Nut(s). 7 Inspect Rear Axle Bent Rear Axle.

This is not a bolt on hub but rather a press on hub, the wheel bearing will need replacing also, remove wheel, remove the caliper and hang off to side, next remove the brake rotor, next is to remove the axle nut. a matter of fact you without power tools should do this first,before even removing the wheel use a big rachet and pipe for leverage, remove the axle nut first. with axle nut removed,brake caliper hanging off to side and rotor off. next you will discconnect tierod from spindle and remove nut from lower ball joint, sperate balljoint from spindle. next remove bolts from strut to spindle. note if you have abs make sure to dissconnect wire before trying to remove spindle, with strut bolts out remove spindle. at this point i wouls say a press is needed, take to your local shop and ask them to replace the hub. heres a picture of the hub asm. hope this helps you. good day.

Removal & Installation To Remove:

1. Remove the front wheel.
2. Remove the front axle hub nut.
3. Disconnect the front stabilizer link from the strut.
4. Disconnect the speed sensor (with ABS).
5. Remove the front brake caliper and rotor.
6. Disconnect the tie rod end.
7. Remove mounting bolts and nut and separate the lower control arm from the ball joint.
8. Using a plastic hammer separate the front axle shaft from the hub.
9. Remove the 2 mounting bolts from the strut. Remove the knuckle and hub assembly.
10. Remove the lower ball joint from the knuckle.
11. Remove the axle hub snap ring from the knuckle.
    
    
12. Remove the axle hub from the hub bearing using special tool 09520-00031 or equivalent hub puller.
13. Remove the inner race from the axle hub using special tool 09950-40011 or equivalent puller.
14. Remove the dust shield from the knuckle.
15. Remove the axle hub bearing from the knuckle using special tool 09520-00031 or equivalent and a press.

To Install:

1. Install the axle hub bearing on the knuckle using special tool 09950-600020 or equivalent and a press.
2. Install the dust shield on the knuckle with 3 mounting bolts.
   • Tighten 73 in-lb (90 Nm).
3. Install the axle hub on the knuckle using special tool 09950-600010 or equivalent and a press.
4. Install the axle hub snap ring.
5. Install the lower ball joint on the knuckle.
   • Tighten the ball stud castle nut 76 ft-lb (103 Nm).
6. Install a new cotter pin.
7. Install the knuckle on the strut with the 2 nuts and bolts.
   • Tighten 162 ft-lb (220 Nm) (except '03-'04) 113 ft-lb (153 Nm) ('03-'04).
8. Lift the knuckle and hub assembly over the axle shaft and into the hub splines.
9. Install the lower control arm on the lower ball joint.
10. Connect the tie rod end to the knuckle.
11. Connect the stabilizer link to the strut.
12. Install the front rotor and brake caliper to the knuckle.
    • Tighten the 2 caliper bolts 79 ft-lb (107 Nm).
13. Install the ABS sensor if equipped.
14. Install the front axle hub lock nut.
    • Tighten 159 ft-lb (216 Nm) and stake the lock nut.
15. Check the axle hub backlash and run-out.
16. Install the front wheel.
17. Check the front wheel alignment and adjust if necessary.

It's not too involved. Here's a link with some more information to change it:

raise you vehicle on jackstands. remove front wheel and tire.remove front caliper from steering knuckle assembly, remove rotor from hub by pulling it staright off. remove speed sensor bracket from strut assembly. remove hub and bearing to stub axle retaining nut. dislodge inner CV stub shaft retaining ringon transaxle assembly. insert small pry bar between transaxle case and inner CV joint by prying on it.remove strut assembly to steering knuckle bolts remove top of steering knuckle from strut assembly, then rotate CV assembly out of vehicle. Remove inner shaft from transaxle stub shaft grasp inner CV joint and interconnecting shaft and pull both pieces out at the same time. good luck!

In order to change the cv joint, you will need to remove the wheel and the brake caliper and rotor. Raise vehicle on jack stands. Remove the wheel and remove the brake pads and caliper. Tie the caliper up out of the way, do not disconnect the brake line attached. Once the caliper is removed, slide the rotor off. Using the correct size socket, remove the nut in center of hub. Some vehicles have a kotter pin in the shaft just in front of nut. If so, remove pin before nut. Next, you will need to loosen a few bolts that hold the strut to the hub assembly. Once you have hub free from strut, turn the hub either left or right while having someone push in on the cv joint while turning joint left or right. Doing so will allow the joint to slide out of hub. Next, using a pry bar, insert between end of transaxle and transmission and pry out. To install new axle, align the axle with transmission and slide into transmission. Carefully work the other end of axle into the center of the hub assembly. Once you have it in the hub, tap gently with a rubber mallet until you hear it "pop" into transmission. Once it is in transmission, replace the bolts connecting the hub to strut. Replace nut on center or cv joint and tighten just until it seats against the hub...do not overtighten. Replace kotter pin with new pin. Slide the rotor over the studs, replace caliper and brake pads, install wheel and you are done.

1. Remover wheel
2. Remove brake caliper
3. Remover rotor
4. Remove 35mm Castle Nut
5. Remover 3 bolts behind strut assembly
6. UNclip any ABS sensor wires
7. Pull hub out of strut assembly but be careful not to pull CV joints out of axle

front or rear?

Assuming rear, on the brake drum:

Hub Removal

1. If equipped, remove the brake drum (1126) ; refer to Section 206-02 . If equipped, remove the rear disc brake rotor (2C026) ; refer to Section 206-04 .

1. Remove the wheel hub.
   1. Unstake the rear axle wheel hub retainer.
   1. Remove the rear axle wheel hub retainer and discard.
   1. Remove the wheel hub (1104).

Remove axle nut that goes thru your hub and rotor,seperate the strut and spindle by removing the 2 nuts and bolts at base of strut,pull spindle towards you force outside of axle out of hub and pop out the axle at the transmisson some fluid may come out. reverse proceedure to install and top off your trans.
