The Ford service manual for the Ford Capri is available for down load at www.techcapri .com and contains detailed instructions on this. I have just finished Changing front hubs and found removing the axel nuts nearly impossible, but in theory the job is fairly straight forward but a puller was needed to remove the hub. Dismantling the hub to change wheel bearings or brake rotors requires special pullers and presses- might be best left to experts unless you have a very well equipped workshop
It should take around 2-3 hours to change the front hubs but a puller is required to remove them . It actually took me several hours just to remove one axle nut and in the end I hade to take it into the mechanics to have it removed. Good luck

You have to get the hub pressed out and for that you have to remove the hub assembly and take it to a machine shop that will press the hub out and replace the studs for you. shouldn't run you more then $50.00. That's if you remove it yourself and take it to the machine shop.
To remove the wheel bearings on a 1993 Capri, first, lift the vehicle and secure it on jack stands. Remove the wheel and brake caliper, then disconnect the brake rotor. Next, remove the hub assembly by loosening the retaining nut and gently tapping the hub with a hammer to free it from the spindle. Finally, use a bearing puller to extract the wheel bearings from the hub assembly.

Do you have to replace it or can you just repack it? It is a sealed hub unit. You have to replace the entire thing.
