You shouldn't have any worries.





Yes thanks - Ive seen seen it and it's a good write up. Im not really concerend about pulling the knuckle though, Ive more or less done that before in various stages for other jobs (replaced clutch in driveway, replaced shocks&lower control arms).

I was curious if I was going to get any grief from an auto machine shop (not an auto service center) about them having to yank the hub before replacing the bearing?

I assume it's not that big a deal, but if it does require a specific hub puller like listed in the service documentation and they don't have one that'd kinda stink lol. Guess I'll just call and ask first
