Chevrolet Repair: 97 cavilier wheel bearings, front wheel bearings, stud holes


Question
97 Chevrolet cavalier, How do I change front wheel bearings.  Are there any special tools needed.

Answer
Take wheel off,
Take caliper off (2xbolts/sliders)
Take driveshaft nut off hub (36mm)
Take 3x torx bolts out of hub, you can rotate hub to largest hole in wheel stud holes
Tap bearing and hub out of spindle.  You may have to get aggressive with it
reverse install and be sure to torque axel nut or you will be doing the bearing again!
