  A:

  To remove the hub/bearing assembly, begin by loosening the driveaxle/hub and wheel lug nuts. Raise the front of the vehicle, support it securely on jackstands and remove the wheel and the ABS wheel speed sensor. Next, discard the driveaxle/hub nut and separate the driveaxle from the steering knuckle, making sure to support the driveaxle end with a wire. Remove the brake caliper, caliper mounting bracket, and brake disc. Finally, remove the hub/bearing assembly from the steering knuckle by discarding the mounting bolts. To install the hub/bearing assembly, ensure that the mounting surface inside the steering knuckle and the driveaxle splines are smooth and free of burrs and nicks. Lubricate the driveaxle splines with multi-purpose grease and fully seat the hub and bearing assembly into the steering knuckle. Insert the driveaxle splines into the hub and install new mounting bolts, tightening them to the correct torque specifications. Install the ABS wheel speed sensor and the brake disc, followed by the caliper mounting bracket and caliper, tightening the fasteners to the proper torque specifications. Install the wheel and lug nuts and lower the vehicle and tighten the driveaxle/hub nut and the lug nuts to the correct torque specifications.
