what ever you see dis-assembled is how you get to the wheel hub that hold the bearing
17mm tie rod and ball joint nuts and bolts
stock 19mm strut nuts and bolts
30mm axle nut
14mm brake caliper bracket bolts
12mm brake caliper bolts

hang the caliper on the strut as shown
clean and take the hub to a shop to get it pressed in and out
food for thought: do the seals and make sure they're good quality ones






hope the crackling and grinding doesnt result as the following laugh.gif or you're ****ed thumbsup.gif
