I'll add this to the FAQ sometime soon, since we all know the 2nd gen guys will replace there bearings once, or 15 times, while they own the car.

BXX Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 You can actually use a 13mm 3/8" drive swivle impact socket and an extension to get the hub to knuckle bolts out much quicker and easier.. For those without a beefy airhammer (a $50 one wont suffice) get a big hammer and a big swing and it should come out.. Ive done plenty of them, takes me 10 minutes to remove and install one tops now, and thats if they are froze in there. Heres the steps I use. -Remove wheel -Remove axle nut, 35/36mm -Use prybar to compress caliper a bit -Remove 2 15mm caliper bracket to knuckle bolts, hang caliper outta the way -Remove rotor -Turn knuckle to the right, remove 2 13mm hub to knuclke bolts, using above tools I spoke of makes easy work of them. You may need to tap in on the axle shaft and push in for added clearence -Unplug ABS sensor -Turn knuckle to the left, remove remaining 13mm hub to knuckle bolt -Use BFH (I use a 36oz Wilton Un-Breakable hammer) or air hammer and remove -Installation is reverse of removal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
