The Nissan Path

Well, I've always thought this was something out of my wheelhouse but, after watching a few videos and seeing what was involved; I believe it's not Completely out of my wheelhouse. So, just ordered the Timken Wheel bearings and going to do both the fronts when they arrive.

I should really change the front shocks/springs too while I'm there but, will see how adventurous I get.
I've got a set of sway bar bushings on the shelf too, so maybe I'll do those while I'm under there.
Will post an update after it's all done!

Please take copious pics (or have a SO do this while u work) and then post them on here in a How-to thread for those of us less skilled at these things

That's a great write up! Damn!!!

Job Done, well that Post and the video I linked too made this job a walk in the park. There was two real tricks for me. Basically destroying the old connector for the wheel speed sensor to get it disconnected from the vehicle. Same on both sides, a good 20 minutes of messing with the stupid connector.

The other trick was once all the bolts were loose and the brakes removed, the hardest part was getting the old housing off. 10 lb sledge was my friend. It seemed to be the only way to break the rust free from the mount. Hitting it from where the brake caliper was supposed to hang, made it easy to get it out.

Good 2.5 hours a side but, job done and no more growling from one side. You can do this!!!
