Hi, Both of my front hubs have too much lateral run-out which I'm now noticing when I brake hard. I verified that both the discs AND the hubs are out of tolerance so going to replace them both. I've watched a few videos online and it looks like I'm in for some pounding (literally). Pressing out seems to be best accomplished by slamming the hub assy right out with a sledge while the spindle sits on some 2x4's or in a vice. Re-installation calls for a press but I'm wondering if I could get away with using a wheal bearing removal kit rented from my local Partsource. I did not see any videos using a slide hammer for removal. I'm guessing it's in there too tight...? Has anyone one here done this job? if so, any tips for DIY'ing? __________________ 2003 V40 1.9T B4204T4, 197,000miles (sold but alive!), 2004 S60 2.5T, 160,000miles, 2010 V70 3.2, 125,000miles, 2002 V70XC 2.4, 175,000miles Click here for my x40 and V70 P3 repair guides
