The socket size for wheel bearings on a 1998 Saturn SL1 is typically a 30mm socket for the axle nut. However, it's important to verify this with specific repair manuals or resources, as variations might exist based on the specific model or any modifications. Always ensure that the vehicle is safely secured before attempting any maintenance.
Depends on the shop, but it's definitely not a DIY job. Call around.
Need to know if 2 wheel or 4 wheel drive for the front. Either way, there is no nut on the back axles.

Call your local auto parts store. Front wheel bearings can go from $50 to $200 (plus labor) depending on manufacture.
Both the front and rear bearings on a 1998 Cavalier are contained in the hub assembly. The rear hub is attached with four bolts, and the front with three.
Yes they are. A hydraulic press is required for removing them.
I posted this question and have since replaced the bearings. Since an answer was not posted I will answer it myself. It's not too difficult. You need a 32mm Socket to remove the retaining nut. An inverted star socket(similar to a reverse torx wrench)is needed to remove the bolts holding the bearings in place(I think it takes a #16 inverted star bit). You also need a hub puller to remove the bearing assembly from the drive shaft. Good Luck!
the socket needed for this job is specific to kia and not available to just anyone someone with metal working skills could build one from a socket meant for another car and ground down to fit. or bribe a mechanic at dealership.
You will need to take the front spindle off and take it to a shop that can press your old bearings off and new ones on.
I got the outer bearing and having problems removing the inner?
Look for wiring running out to the front wheel bearings. If there are speed sensors at the front wheels, then you have 4 wheel abs.
