Posted by J Sparacino on Aug 31, 2016
you double posted. why do that????
no, the hubs are integrated bearing hubs.
here read the parts pages,
see any tapered bearings there,
if not sold , pray tell , how can you pack the bearing not in hand.
not only that, there are like 1000000 books on how to pack front bearing, if they were removable and are not.
why not look first then post.? at car and the book, !
or read the FREE FSM, it says what ?, unbolt them
and replace the integrated hub assembly.
that is a fact. 300 times ive posted the free book, now.
and is still there, and the words still real ,still jeep words and all accurate. sigh.
below is rockautos list of after market hub assemblies.
do not get confused at those needle bearings, those are actually front axle shaft bearings, not hub wheel bearings. fact.
wheel bearing are ball or tapered rollers, to handle lateral huge loading.

if not in USA< now's that time to say, our books are not for your car. nor parts.

answering for 2007 WK jeep USA.
can , what does can mean.? I can !
all parts on all cars can be replaced
what are you asking, please.

why not post symptoms first
then say what you've done so far.
then ask how to solve a specific problem.
is this a 4wd question? on 4wd parts or just the wheel bearing hub question.

eg:
hello, my wheel bearing is bad, (play and noises)
what are the steps to repair it.
easy read the manual
its all there.

click wk
then see chapter.2

that be a wild guess on your drive line.....

TO DO WHAT? not even the smallest hint on job or failure.>?
USA?
hubs, the rears have hubs to with disc brake option.rotor hubs.
I guess front hubs?.
guess 2, wheel bearing hubs, and not 4wd axle locking hub units.
doing what?
brakes, wheel bearings, axle damage. 4wd axle bearings what?
the pages are 2wd pages, and 4 wd pages, which is yours?
is this your first time DIY ever. ? or first time 4wd?
guess 3, 4wd, how am I guessing....


names
Acura SLX
Chevrolet Trooper
Isuzu Bighorn
Holden Jackaroo
Holden Monterey
Honda Horizon
HSV Jackaroo
Opel Monterey
Subaru Bighorn
Vauxhall Monterey
wow......
our usa book lists it as trooper only.
so ...

just B or B then A off? if you had b off, you'd see what?, a big nut.
that is locked to spindle shaft.
ill guess? wheel bearings are bad? (just in hub not spindle bearings bad... no matter this is first.)
so you do what. ? here are the steps.

that part"B" must be off first, see the bolts holding it, ?
B = auto locking hubs. or hub axle lockers.
you can see the caliber must come off, so, do so and tie them up.

1. "Place the Transfer shift in the 2H position.
2. Raise and support the front of the vehicle safely on jackstands. (rear tires chocked, and hand brake set hard)
3. Remove the wheel and tire assembly.
4. Loosen the hub to rotor retainer bolts.
5. Remove the brake caliper mounting bolts and carefully remove the caliper (along with the brake pads) from the rotor. Do not disconnect the brake line. Secure the caliper out of the way with the flexible line still connected.
6. Remove the hub nut using hub wrench J-29020-A or equivalent. ( special tool)
7. Remove the hub cap assembly retainer bolts. Remove the spindle nut, washers, and other components. Remove the hub/rotor, being careful not to drop the outer wheel bearings. As the hub/rotor is pulled forward, the outer wheel bearings will often fall forward.
8. Once the hub/rotor is removed, remove the retainer bolts securing the rotor and hub together. Inspect the hub and replace if needed."
9. end removal. install is next... (alldata.com covers this)

old post, but you are first to say front. many others fail to say end of car.

is your car 4wd, as 2wd is different rules. so...??????

I toss coin land on 4WD.

2000 front wheel bearing

got it.

the 2000 year, is important.

this year is the last year, before non untized hubs.

3. Remove the brake caliper, caliper anchor, rotor and ABS wheel speed sensor.
4. Remove the cotter pin, nut retainer and axle hub nut.
5. Remove the hub/bearing mounting bolts from the back of the steering knuckle. Remove hub/bearing from the steering knuckle and off the axle shaft.

Installation

1. Install the hub/bearing to the knuckle.
2. Install the hub/bearing-to-knuckle bolts and tighten to specification.
3. Install the hub washer and nut. Tighten the hub nut to specification. Install the nut retainer and a new cotter pin.
4. Install the brake rotor, caliper anchor, caliper and ABS wheel speed sensor.
5. Install the wheel and tire assembly.
6. Remove the support and lower the vehicle.

replace the bearing or wheel hub assembly.

REMOVAL & INSTALLATION 2wd Models NOTE: Refer to wheel bearing service and bearing preload adjustment procedures found in Section 1.

1. Raise the front of the truck and support it with safety stands. Remove the wheels.
2. Remove the brake caliper and suspend it with wire, out of the way. Remove the caliper torque plate if equipped.
3. Remove the dust cap and then remove the cotter pin, lock washer (if equipped) nut lock and nut.
4. Pull the hub/disc assembly off the spindle with the outer bearing. Don't let the bearing fall out.
5. Pry the inner oil seal out and remove the inner bearing. To install:
   
6. Clean and inspect the bearings and outer races.
7. Using a brass drift and a hammer, drive out the bearing outer race. Press a new one into position.
8. Pack the bearings with grease until it oozes out the other side. Coat the inside of the hub and cap with grease.
9. Position the inner bearing into the hub, coat the oil seal with grease and press it into the hub.
10. Press the hub assembly onto the spindle and install the outer bearing and thrust washer.
11. Install the hub nut. Turn the hub a few times to seat the bearings and then loosen the nut until there is 0mm axial play. Using a spring tension gauge, check that the preload (with new grease seal installed) is 2.2–6.4 lbs. (9.8–28.4N)
12. Install the lock-nut, new cotter pin and hub grease cap.
13. Install the brake torque plate. Install the brake caliper.
14. Install the wheels and lower the truck.

4wd Models The hub and bearing service procedures for a 4wd models are basically the same as those for a 2wd version, with the exception of removing the free running hub assembly and the bearing preload adjustment. Refer to Sections 1 and 7 for additional information. Adjust the preload after the wheel bearing is replaced or the front axle assembly is reassembled. BEARING PRELOAD ADJUSTMENT

1. Thoroughly clean all parts and pack the wheel bearings.
2. Apply grease to threaded portions of the spindle, grease seal lip and wheel hub.
3. Tighten the wheel bearing lock-nut with a socket and torque wrench to 58–72 ft. lbs. (78–98 Nm).
4. Rotate the hub in both directions a few times to seat the bearings. Loosen wheel bearing lock-nut.
5. Retighten the lock-nut to 0.4–1.1 ft. lbs. (0.5–1.5 Nm).
6. Turn wheel hub several times in both directions.
7. Retighten the lock-nut to 0.4–1.1 ft. lbs. (0.5–1.5 Nm). Fig. 1: Exploded view of the front axle assembly — 2wd models
   Fig. 2: Removing the bearing outer races
   Fig. 3: Packing the wheel bearing with grease
   Fig. 4: Pack the lip cavity of grease seal with grease
   Fig. 5: Exploded view of the front axle assembly — 4wd models
   
   
8. Measure wheel bearing axial end-play. The wheel bearing end-play specification is 0.
9. Install lock washer by tightening the lock-nut within 15–30 degrees.
10. Turn wheel hub several times in both directions. Wheel bearing should be seated correctly.
11. If necessary, measure wheel bearing preload. NOTE: Measure wheel bearing preload with a spring-type gauge; measure at wheel hub bolt, with tire removed. The hub assembly should rotate with 1.6–4.7 lbs. (0.73–2.13 kg) of pressure.
    

buy an older truck to answer question all newer model vehicles have gone to a hub/flange bearing assembly these bearing setups handle loads without or very minimum variance, when you go into a cornering situation these bearing setups give you a steady and consistent track thus a better handling vehicle now instead of cleaning and repacing tose old cone and race style bearings you just unbolt hub assembly and any related abs sensors and bolt on new

give these websites a try its www.autozone.com and www.alldatadiy.com if all fails stop by your local jeep dealership in the parts department and they will print you out a diagram if that fails stop by your local library and get your hands on Haynes auto repair Manual for your SUV wish you the best of luck Michigan Man
