S13 wheel bearing question

[txdragon]

I can't find my book for the life of me and am curious if the S13 wheel bearings are the sealed ones or not?

Do they need to be replaced with the hub?

Yes according to my parts catalog it is a sealed bearing.

I'd recomend a machine shop as pounding on the new bearing could hurt it.

I recently took the previous maxima spindle in to have a new bearing pressed in, they disasembled, took out the old one, pressed in the new one, put new seals in, and put it back together for 45 bucks.

I don't think the hammering would be for me of course! I would probably see about the whole assembly as opposed to the bearing only as time crunch and such.

Thanks fellas!
