fitting a rear wheel bearing GT3

[B3NZARMY]

im in need of a wheel bearing to be replaced
im about to buy a bearing kit off ebay or from my local motor factor , would i need one with abs or without and what is the proses of fitments

You need one with abs. Non abs one won't have the teeth.

should just be the hub nut to hold the whole hub assembly on. worst case is one of the bearing races is jammed on the stub, just grind it off. emmery the stub grease and slide new one on. torque for rear hub is 280Nm i think, dont quote me though.

That's a muppets guide to doing it lol. Obviously you'll need to jack the car up first etc

You might need a hub puller too, about £11 from halfords.
