bearing is going south

should i press out the bearing or replace the hub assembly

but the workshop manual states 'The wheel knuckle/wheel hub is serviced as an assembly. Do not attempt to separate the wheel hub from the wheel knuckle'

I am an expert by no means, but I've had both my rear bearings changed out at separate times.... (both went out to to the point of rattle).... and for both I just had the bearing pressed out and replaced....

hope that helps...
 
I bought a bearing and removed the whole knuckle and decided to bring the whole thing to a dealership to be pressed in. Worked out great.
 
thanx guys for the input


had a new bearing pressed into the knuckle.....quiet as a church again
