Sir, one other question. Do you remove the spindle along with the hub and bearing, being it has too be pressed in?The pictorial is great.

Spindle? I am not sure I follow which part you are talking about. Do you mean the axle shaft? I attached a picture pointing at the part I am talking about.

If this is what you are talking about, you do not have to remove the axle but the spline part at the end of it that has a nut holding it on the hub needs to be pushed out when removing the hub.

If this is not the part you are talking about, take a picture of it and I will get on the same page with you. Thanks
