I need new front wheel bearings...which means the whole hub needs to be changed. I can get the parts at cost, and i really dont want to pay someone to put them in, cause i know itll cost a ****ton...so anyone wanna devote a sunday to changing some front wheel hubs on a GP?

Eh, it's pretty easy Matt. I did the driver's side of my Lumina a few months ago, I still need to do the passenger side.
I had a lift and air tools, but a jack and a breaker bar should get the job done pretty easily.

what did you use to get the axle out of the hub? im trying to find a write up on it, i know it saw it once but now i cant find it. as far as i know the hardest part is getting the axle out without ****ing it up

I used a rubber mallet on the end of the axle while pulling out on the hub assembly. Came out pretty easily that way. The only issue I had was getting it to seat right in the new hub. Took a little coaxing.
