Rear wheel bearing hub replacement

[dhosh]

hello ...
I could use help figuring out the sequence to remove the rear wheel bearing hub assymbly on a '06 Matrix XR (AWG, with ABS). The (12mm?) bolts from the inside of the flange appear pretty unacessable without either a special tool, or the axle being pulled inward, away from the flange, so a socket can properly seat on the nuts. Might it say what size the axle nut is? I don't have one that size and will need to get one from the shop I'm getting the bearing assymbly from.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks mistamatrix .... looks like I'm not going to have the time nor tools to do this myself. There is more dissasymbly necessary than I thought, given the awd. :-(

Thanks for the timely response, however!

.... at least this weekend. I might give it a shot next weekend, though. I have a 30mm socket, but not the right type .... just fits standard nut, not the multi-faceted ones. Installation cost isn't looking so bad. :-)

Thanks again,


Dennis
