kyle, the front bearings are easy!

Remove the wheel, the caliper, the bridge, the rotor, the Hub nut in the center, then push the drive axle back a bit, disconnect the ABS connector, then there are 3 bolts on the back side that you remove, Then pound the bearing outward, once you have it separated from the steering knunle a bit, slip a screwdriver into the space, then pound on the other side and it will wedge it outward. clean the knuckle surface and install the bearing in reverse order. The Hub Nut must be torqued to 183 Foot pounds otherwise it will fail again.
