I tried searching but could not find an article on how to replace the front wheel hub /bearing on a 92 hatch.
Can someone please help.

Thank you

fastest and best way will be with a press. ive seen old timers use there thighs to hold the knuckle while holding a socket and pounding it out by hand. youll be there a couple hrs hoping the bearing isnt seized into the knuckle assembly. but you need to get the hub out the get to the snap ring. then next is the bearing. usually part of the bearing will stick to the hub shaft. youll need to cut if with a cutoff grinder at a angle and put a chisel in the cut groove and hammer till it cracks. then itll come off.

ive done it with a press and with a torch, air hammer, and vice to press the new bearing in, it is much easier with a press, to be honest if your looking for a step by step how to i wouldnt do it, its not the easiest thing in the wolrd for a new mechanic, if anything pull your hub off, which is pretty self explanitory, take it to a shop and let them press the new bearing in. might as well change the lower ball joint at the same time.
