FEA, check out those pdf files at the timken bearing link in my above post. they are pretty good. although general, they will get you through this without all the special tools isuzu calls for.

do use, though that spring scale to preload the bearings correctly.

ADDED EDIT: as to the hub nut tool, some just use a drift punch or such to get that nut off (including mlclark iirc). others adapt a 4-prong to a 2-prong lock nut 'socket'. there are quite a few descriptions on this either here or maybe planetisuzoo.

and while packing/repacking bearings with your hands (and fingers is very do-able), a few bucks for one of those bearing packers at the parts store will reward you with more-better results that's more sure.

///EDIT ADD2: Yeah, *that's* the one. FEA, strawmyer's "Click Here" link in his post below is *great*. /// have fun!
