I did the passenger side but for the life of me can't remember how I did it, any advice for this project?
 
jack up the car take off the wheel remove the brake caliper then the rotor there should be four bolts and a dust shield to remove make sure you dont let the brake caliper hang there by the line support it by something i just stick mine in the back and make sure i dont knock and you will have to take off the nut for the axle it off reverse the procedure and your good to go yeah they are the whole hub.

there is a ton of youtube videos that are pretty short on how to do it if you arent sure..

also dont go cheap on the ebay one i tried that and it lasted a couple months and had to do it again..
 
You will need to remove the outer end of the axle first. Because the 4 bolts holding the wheel bearing hub assembly are bolted in through the back of the knuckle.
 
Yea I got pronto from cee kay auto around my area, passenger side has been good for 2 years nows with it... just couldn't remember how the hell I did it..

Edit:...

Forgot... remove crown nut then gives you room to get to the 4 bolts.

The 2g hub/bearing assembily are one, you habe th replace the whole thing the bearings on a 2g are not serviceable.

Actually, they are serviceable. I had mine replaced with ceramic ball bearings. Now I can't say if any non performance bearing places will do this but technically they can be serviced :)
 
Agree with TSIAWD666! I actually did mine with moog bearings from Advance and it went really well. You just need a shop press, puller and a bunch of huge sockets. Maybe a torch too. Good luck!
