just wondering how hard it is to change a front wheel bearing.
The passinger side front has got about 20mm play when i gve it a shake.

Im just wonderng weather the bearing has to be bashed out of the hub.

Iv had the engine and box out a couple of times and done clutch so it shunt be a job i cant do,unless it requires ay specal tools etc.

Cheers

yep it needs to be bashed out,haynes tells you procedure if your unsure,as far as new bearing replacement i would get a garage to do it using a proper press,you can do it urself its just a little tricky to get them to go in straight,lot of messing about.
