wheel bearing r/r

i def advise gloves for this



u will get greasy



note, buy a new seal! i beat the snot out of old one getting it out , back to store tmrw...





bearings just pull out, races r in pretty tight, i used a drift at an angle to push the races out like so







cleaned the thing up fairly well




to install races i used wooden dowel around the race tapping in slowlyyyyy to get it seated, a press would be 50x faster



spring compressor works great on vogtlands! if i can just get the crappy old mb springs out~!!!!!!!!!!!!!



took off, sway bar, strut mount, brake caliper carrier, but the control arm wont go low enough, possibly bc the tie rods still on,

how to solve?




CUT THE SPRING W ANGLE GRINDER! ya suck it spring, if it werent super late id b grinding it to bits right now.... updates tmrw
