NEW Front Bearings and Disc install (pics) - oh what fun...

[tom4bren]

I gotta do the front bearings now (failed inspection). Found these available for much less:

Full set for both sides (including seals) with shipping came to less than $70.

I'll let ya know how it turns out.

Well, I decided to only do the passenger side with those bearings (inner came with outer race but outer didn't ... & they messed up the order & only sent 1 outer bearing. I'll get some quality bearings & do the full set soon.

What I found was that the hub nut was very loose (I'm thinking the shop did not set the passenger side bearing pre-load when they changed out my half shafts). The 3 phillips head screws that everyone hates ... were stripped. I'm going to hit Fastenal on the way home to find some replacements & will post the part # once I get it right (hope to find them allen or torx instead of phillips).
