Rear bearings are 1 piece assembly the retaining bolts should be renewed too if you can get them with the bearing ( old ones where female tx) new are male tx
Front bearings are gen2 bearing so will need correct tools to install into knuckle or you risk the bearing prematurely failing
PAS fluid can be green or red
It's 9/10 the green stuff
If you give me the vin I can look up spec

Press in and be careful with the abs ring they can be tight and easy bent , i bent one once and straightened it and it put the abs light on at low speeds !! |
