Now your saying that if I Do the following
1. remove caliper/ pads
2. remove spindle bolt
3. remove the 4 bolts
4. remove lower ball joint (to get CV shaft out)
5. tap bearing/hub out
6. remove 4 bolts on rotor.
Now if this right why do some many people go after snapping the bearing apart with the risk of damaging a perfectly fine bearing. Do I have to torque the spindle nut to 181ft-lb. All I have is a torque wrench that goes up to 150ft-lb.
