I tried searching but couldn't find anything specific.
I have been trying to change my driver front wheel bearing assembly for the past week and cannot get the three 15mm bolts to loosen. I have soaked them in Pb blaster hit them with a torch numerous times and tried to use an air impact with no avail. I did the passenger side a few months ago and it wasn't as big PITA as the drivers side is being.
My question- is the knuckle threaded or is only the hub?
My thought is to use a cut off wheel and cut the bearing apart and replace the bolts or get a used knuckle from a junk yard for $50 and say to hell with it and ditch the PITA old one.
What do u guys think?
