The Isuzu shop manual refers to several special tools:

Hub Nut wrench; bearing Installer & Grip (what I refered to as driver tools)- a different part number installer for inner & outer bearings; yet another Installer part for the Inner Cam; yet another for the axle shaft Lock Washer & Snap Ring Shims - here they recommend different size shims on hand to verify the clearance "between the snap ring groove of the axle shaft"; and finally another "tool driver" for installing the Snap Ring!

I'm really not a perfectionist by any stretch, rather just concerned when it come to this kind of first timer stuff. Let me know what you think, thanks again Mike.
