So i think my wheel bearing is going out on my J30 hubs/spindles in the rear.

Has anyone ever done a wheel bearing on one before?

Im worried it'll be hard as hell because the hub/spindle are a one-piece deal...

Any help would be great. Also, where can i buy a wheel bearing from?

They are not hard to replace, take out all the brake parts, remove the dust cover and then the nut that hold the wheel hub to the spindle, then slide the whole thing out , take it to a machine shop with the new bearing, and have them press out the old one and in the new one. Cause without a big press you won't be able to do it at home.
