Default Need some opinions...

Sup people!!

Friend of mine is getting a 88 or 89 CRX hf to put his D16A6 in. Problem is neither one of us know how to swap the hubs. Anybody know where a writeup is? I searched and found a writeup for replacing the wheel bearings, but that's the closest I could find. I consider myself a decent mechanic, but i've never done this before and I really have know clue how to replace a hub?? Help me out fellas!

if you are just swapping the engine in, unless you are using a ZC transmission, just use the HF axles and don't replace hubs
