Ah, the joys of owning a 225,000 car.....
This is what I do know: Front hubs cost $85 - $120 apiece, and are sealed units with bearings. Non-greasable.
When you get the dust covers off, there's no cotter pin like the "old" cars. There is, however, some kind of tin cover (keeper?) around the big nut to keep it from unscrewing itself as you drive (must be a special setup for the air suspension) (I'm kidding!).
Ok, so what I don't know is: How does this cover over the nut come off???? I did pry alittle on it, but thought I'd deferr to you's guys, the experts, and not dork up the whole sheebang.
It would be helpful to also know how big of a socket I'm going to need to get the nut off and torqued back on to 189-254 ft-lbs.
Thanks in advance......
