How to get to wheel bearing?
I have a 1991 SR5 pickup, 3.0, 4x4, with ADD hubs. I need to inspect/repack/replace my passenger side front wheel bearing.
After doing some searching and reading up on here, I know a 54mm socket is needed and I have one of them as well as a new wheel seal. The only thing i am missing is an actually diagram, or step by step guide on how to get in there to the bearing. The old method of remember how you took it apart and put it back together the opposite way is possible I'm sure, but i would just like some reassurance.
So if anyone has a copy of the page in the manual, or a link to a how to that would be great!

Whats the point... just tell him what he wants to know instead of useless posts like that...
Make sure you got the 54mm socket, torque wrench and new inner oil seals for the rotor.

Make sure you pack those bearings with Moly grease well. Put a glob of grease in your hand. Thwap that new bearing into the grease (several times) till the grease begins to pucker out the other side between the race, bearings and cage. Rotate the bearing and thwack till you work your way all the way around and it it well packed with grease!
If you do the bearings, don't forget to replace the seals in there too!

Lastly loctite and RTV are your friends when doing re-assembly!
