From what I heard if you stand in front of the car there is a place looking down the gearbox you'll see a place to add it half way down
Disassembly procedure to replace
front wheel bearing: ----
1) Remove drive axle from front wheel
hub. 2) Remove inner snap ring. 3) Remove wheel hub with Support Bridge, hub adapter, hex, and forcing
screw. 4) Remove brake shield. Remove outer snap ring.
5) Remove wheel bearing with
support bridge, bearing adapter, hex nut, and forcing screw. Clean
bore of knuckle. ---------Now for Assembly: ------
1) Install outer snap ring and
push wheel bearing into place with Support Bridge, bearing adapter, hex nut, and
forcing screw. 2) Install brake shield. Install inner snap ring and push
wheel hub into place with hub adapter, bearing adapter, hex nut, and forcing
screw.
3) Install drive axle into front
wheel hub.
--------------
To follow all this procedure a
special tool is required:----
Tools Required are as
follows:-----
500-20 Hex Nut , J-36661-2
Forcing Screw , J-37105-B-1 Support Bridge , J-37105-B-2
Bearing Adapter ,J-37105-B-3 Hub Adapter.----------
The bearings are pressed into the front
hubs. They are bearings, so extreme care must be used when installing them.
Your special tools are pressing tools to remove and install the bearing into
the hub (pressing it in).If you do not have special too then it will be very
much time consuming.
If you remove the hub you will need an
alignment as your angles will be jeopardized. To remove the hub you will remove
the axle shaft, Remove the brake caliper and rotor, Remove the outer tie rod
end from the hub, Then remove the lower strut connection, Then remove the lower
ball joint.A lot of work is saved with the special tools, But you should be
able to take the hubs to a machine shop and have them swapped out for about
$40-$50 each.----------
Yes this is true, but you do not need
to disconnect the strut, lower joint, or mess with the alignment. It is faster,
I Have done many both ways. You will still need pressing tools if you are using
a hydraulic press. Remove the "C" clip from the underside of the
bearing and press the bearing out of the hub. Then clean the hub real good and
press the new bearing in. Be sure to only apply pressure to the outer housing
of the new bearing otherwise it will be destroyed.
