[QUOTE="blert, post: 1050164, member: 64702"] 2-wd? Did mine a couple years back, was cake. The rotor and hub are one piece. It will come with a new race already pressed into it, no hammer-time needed. You will need new bearings, seals, and cotter pins. You can pound the new seals in with a block of wood and a rubber mallet. Don't forget your tub of high quality slippery goop to pack the bearings. If I recall correctly, the torque specs for the large nut is 15in-lbs. (Or pick your favorite method: finger tight, with no wiggle, then... "5minute"/"1o'clock", slight nudge, "feels" right, etc.) I tightened to 20ft-lbs then released, then tightened to 15in-lbs. Hardest part of the job, IMO, was getting the dust caps back on without denting them. 4-wd is a different beast. No need to pull the hub just to replace the rotor. [/QUOTE]
