How do you remove a 1994 mercury sable front wheel bearing?

Answer 1

If you have a good size arbor press (12 ton, relatively inexpensive) and the equivalents of the called for tools (also relatively inexpensive) you can press out the hub from the steering knuckle/bearing assembly, then press out the bearing from the knuckle, press the new bearing back into the knuckle and then the hub back into the knuckle/bearing assembly then reinstall into your vehicle... or you can take the steering knuckle assembly to a machine shop and have them do it. If you think it's something you may do more than once, buy the tools. Incidentally, after 1994 the hub and bearing replacement is a very easy operation; just take out the hub/bearing assembly and install a new one. I just did it on my 1996 Taurus, basically the same car. The 1994 is a major pain by comparison. If the bearing starts to fail after a short period of time, then you need a new knuckle; you drove the car on a bad bearing for too long.
