Got the front hub changed today and it wasnt as bad as I thought.My wife had been complaining of road noise so I dropped 600.00 for a new set of tires but no dice.The local repair shop said it was a bearing and it would cost 340.00.I got a hub on ebay for 85.00 shipped with abs and I did have to buy a 3 jaw puller(15.00).Word of advice to those who want to do it...get the shortest 15mm socket you can find to get at the hub mounting bolts...push to axle in BY HAND to get clearance for the socket and you wont have any trouble.Thanks to those on here who posted the step by step process.Its really just one step further than changing brake pads.
