remove the brake caliper bottom bolt 15mm. lift the caliper up and slide the caliper pin out
remove the caliper housing bracket 2 - 15mm. bolts
remove the brake rotor
remove the drive axle nut 1 5/16
the remove the hub bearing bolts 3- 13mm. they are in behind (best to use a 13mm flex socket)
disconnect the ABS harness
use a hammer and hit the hub bearing flage (it maybe corroded )

Need to know clip type for front wheel bearing abs sensor on 2001 montana regular wheel base ?

Not sure what you are actually wanting to know here. I do know that the ads use two types of clips, one is plastic and the other is metal, the only difference that I know of is the price.

The right front tire make a whining sound and when the steering wheel is turned to the left it gets louder.

Sounds like you have a bad wheel bearing. Sometimes you can jack up the wheel, in your case the right front) and with one hand spin the wheel while holding onto the front strut spring with the other. If you can feel the noise (sounds wierd but you can feel the noise) than the bearing is bad. It helps if the transmission is in neutral (make sure you secure the vehicle from moving while its in neutral)

2003 Pontiac Montana Front Wheel Bearings

Remove the wheel, remove the hub nut, remove the brake caliper and rotor, put your socket and extension through the hub flange onto the bearing retainer bolts, undo them, release the abs sensor connector if it has it, remove the bearing and hub flange as an assembly, put the new one on and go backwards from here. Torque the hub nut to 180 ft/lbs, your done.
