About a month after installing a new driveshaft, shocks, and ball joints, the wheel bearing started to make noise! I'd remove everything, then take the spindle, and new bearing too a proffesional shop that has a press, and let them press them in. It's a lot easier! TRUST ME! Anyway, be sure you have good, high quality ball joints too. I bought TRWs, but I've heard from a few people about some cheapos, that have a tin cover plate(?). These don't last. Make sure they're solid construction,(,ine were) unless you like replacing them every 15,000 miles! The ball joints were the hardest part for me, just because one of the bolts that hold them into the A-arm was rusted in there, real good! Took 4 hours just to figure it out! When I did the bearings though,(second time I took the damn thing apart!) I had it apart, and back together in less than an hour. Shouldn't take long. Just press the bearings! I broke one try otherwise! Sorry so long, but I'd like you to learn from my mistakes, so you don't have the same headaches!
