Hey Everyone
I've been a watched on these forums for a while, and I finally figured I would pick the more knowledgeable ones heads.
I'm doing the front wheel bearings on my X this weekend, It's not a 4x4, so I figured / worked out it's a simple job. BUT, what exactly would I need. For both sides.
I figured,
2 x Inner Bearings
2 x Outer Bearings
2 x Wheel Seals
Lithium Grease.
Anything I left out?
What about the races? can I reuse the ones that are inside the rotors?
Would I need any special tools to do this.? I figured a bearing press?
Oh and what about the big old wheel nut / anything needed to get that off?
I did a search but there is not much info related to RWD explorers, seems mostly 4x4.
Thanks
