Front Wheel bearing replacement write-up?
Im looking for a DIY to replace my front pass side wheel bearing on my 95 gsr can only find on one here for rear bearings.Im going to get a slide hammer to get the hub off and need to know exactly what is going to need to come off in order to get my hub off.
After removed I know I have to take it to a shop to get the new bearing pressed in.
Any help is appreciated

Hmm im trying to remember the specifics of what holds the hub to the steering knuckle , obviously caliper and rotor need to come off . I want to say its just 3 bolts that holds the hub to the knuckle but i could be wrong . I havent done any chassis work on my car in months .
You have to take off the caliper/rotor.
Take the ball joints off the knuckle. theres 3 of them.
take knuckle down somewhere. You will have to press the hub out of the bearing ( I use a hammer and a socket that fits over the piece where the axle goes into) at which time the inner race will probably stay on the hub. Press out the bearing and remove the inner race from the hub. Take some sandpaper and freshen up the hub.
Press new bearing in. then press the hub back in.
Install knuckle back on car and drive.
Do you need pictures too? If so go buy a helms manual.
