Advice on hub change on on my V8 please |
|
Chaps,
Happy New Year.
Now posted to the US and happy with my V8, it turns out I have a strong rumbling which appears to be my NS bearing. I've ordered the parts from LR Direct who are quite superb compared to stealer prices here. Having been quoted $300 labour at my local and on the cusp of Christmas, I'm going to do this myself (despite already having a mere in pieces in my garage).
Question: do I need/should I get a bearing puller for the job? I've got all the other tools I need and also have the excellent pdf writeup from a fellow forum member. It's just that he glosses over the issue of removing the hub, which is, I suspect, more challenging than he suggests!
Thanks in advance.

If front no puller needed hub held on with 4 bolts from the rear.
Bi-hex socket for calliper carrier bolts.
Be careful of the abs sensor and dont try and remove it.
If rear havent a clue as I havent done one.
