make SURE the axle is torqued properly or you will be doing it again.

and bearings are tough to diagnose which one is bad by sound. have to kinda just know just from experience and i have had to pull both and swap em before. not often but once in awhile .

If I'm understanding the service manual correctly, the wheel bearing (one piece) is pressed into the hub and then a special tool is used to pull it into the knuckle. I was calling the hub/knuckle an assembly in previous posts. The torque setting on the hub/axle has a really wide acceptable range. Then the tirod and lower ball joint are replaced, followed by the brakes, etc. Seems like a pain, but the alternative is probably 400 or more. Amirite?
