I did this with the help of Joe/Justin. And with air tools and the proper tools the job went alot faster. So you jack up your car, take wheel off, brake caliper off, rotor off, and the center nut (30mm). **there is a locking dust cap on the center nut which needs to be removed** After this remove the 6 hex bolts that hold the half shaft to the diff. Then you get to this pic where the hub is exposed and the axle stub in the hub is ready to be pounded out. ***I should also add that to ease the aide of this process on the drivers side, the exhaust should be dropped.


Unbolt shock

Heres my hack repair job of my ripped cv boot.



Halfshaft knocked out with a center punch. We were lucky it came out easily.


Knock hub out from behind with something about the size of the diameter of the hub and smaller than the diameter of the inner race of the wheel bearing

heres what you will be looking at, basically the splined shiny portion is the hub to be knocked out

Heres your wheel bearing. We were lucky again b/c the inner race did not stick on the hub. However I had bought a extra hub incase this happened. Turned out this saved us alot of time on the other side.

Then we have a pic of the $$$$tool set that makes this a 15min job

You basically fit a hollow diameter tube bigger than the outer race of the wheel bearing, and another behind the trailer arm. Two circular plates fit over the tubes and a big ass bolt goes through the center. a nut goes through the bolt. When you tighten the nut, the bearing gets pressed out toward you.


Bearing out!

Sorry crappy view from behind showing the holding plate that will draw the bearing back in.

New bearing in!

Installing locking circlip

Installing hub. Same concept as before. Plate over hub to draw it into the wheel bearing, except this time the plate on the OPPOSITE side is only bigger than the INNER diameter of the wheel bearing.

Hub In


After this reinstall your rotor, calipers.
I replaced my half shafts with remanufactured ones while I was at it. When reinstalling the halfshafts, you can pound it in from the differential end, just make sure the splines on the hub and halfshaft are clean. Also make sure to put ANTISEIZE on the splines. It should go in fairly easily. Also make sure your pounding the shaft in straight into the hub. Then bolt the shaft up to the diff. Reinstall your exhaust and your done... There were some complications I should note that which I'll add later on.
