Front Wheel Bearing Replacement

I used relatively inexpensive tools to remove and replace the front wheel bearings. As is typical on many cars these these days, the old wheel bearings need to be pressed out and the new bearings need to be pressed in. What made this project extra specially fun was the fact that the hex socket of the axle bolt was completely rusted and rounded out with no way to get the a 17mm hex bit into the axle bolt to remove it. Ugh.

 

I ordered Timken bearings

NSK bearings were in the Timken boxes. I guess that's how Timken filled out their product line.
