I need a diagram of the driver side front wheel bearing tear down. Im not sure if it has to be pressed out or not. Need to know before I buy the parts. I called the local part store and they said it had an inner and an outer bearing for $8. That sounds a little cheap so I need to know what the job entails before I start and cant finish.

A press is needed to complete this repair. Both inner and outer bearing races must be replaced with a new bearing or premature bearing failure will result. Hope this answers your question.
