Hello All,

I'm about to embark on a much need replacement of all the above listed
front end parts.  Huw's photo-tutorial of the bushing removal tool will
be of great aid I'm sure.  But does anyone know of a similar resource
for instructions on the ball joints and the wheel bearing?  I've done a
couple VW wheel bearings and both were grand tasks, requiring a trip to
a hydraulic press with the whole assembly.  Has anyone discovered an
easy way to get the bearing out without a press?

I've never done ball-joints so any tips would be much appreciated.

Thanks..
