How do you remove and replace a hub and bearing assembly?

The hub and bearing assembly is a sealed unit and requires replacement if faulty. Begin by loosening the driveaxle/hub nut and wheel lug nuts. Elevate the vehicle on jackstands, remove the wheel, and set aside the brake caliper and disc. Remove the hub nut and the assembly-to-knuckle bolts. Use a puller to detach the hub assembly from the driveaxle, protecting its end with a rag. For installation, follow the reverse process, lubricate driveaxle splines, and tighten all components to the recommended torque.
