I've got a '99 4x4 and the pass - side hub assembly is starting to make quita bit
Of noise. Any tips on doing it??

 

It's not hard at all.

The worst part may be getting the hub off the spindle, due to corrosion.

Just make sure to torque the axle nut properly. It shouldn't take much more than an hour.

REMOVAL
(1) Raise and support vehicle.
(2) Remove wheel and tire assembly.
(3) Remove axle nut.
(4) Remove ABS wheel speed sensor if equipped, refer to Group 5 Brakes.
(5) Remove the brake caliper and rotor, refer to Group 5 Brakes.
(6) Remove hub/bearing mounting bolts from the steering knuckle.
(7) Slid hub/bearing out of the steering knuckle and off the axle.

INSTALLATION
(1) Install the hub/bearing into the steering knuckle and tighten the bolts to 166 N·m (123 ft. lbs.).
(2) Install the brake rotor and caliper.
(3) Install ABS wheel speed sensor if equipped.
(4) Install axle nut and tighten to 235 N·m (173 ft. lbs.).
(5) Install wheel and tire assembly.
(6) Remove support and lower vehicle

 

If you don't have access to a powerful air hammer gun and just relying on a breaker bar (like how I did) It can take a good amount of time. I had a 1/2" drive 1-1/4" (I think that's the size) breaker bar and I actually broke the drive clean off when I was standing on it trying to get the axle nut loose. Other than that, it's easy.

 

Thanks. I have use of a lift and air tools...
Just have never done one before. Sounds
Like it can be tuff.
