front wheel bearing?

how do I remove the front wheel bearing of my 1994 ford mondeo.

ken to remove the front wheel bearing you first must.
jack up the car and support remove the wheel then you will see in the center of the hub where the wheel fitted a small silver cap with the aid of a screwdriver remove the silver cap
inside you will see grease wipe it off there you will see a splitpin through the middle of the axle remove the splitpin and then remove the cap which is over the axle nut[the nut should not be to tight]slacken the center nut,as you remove the nut the outer bearing is behind it.if you wish to replace the inner bearing then that is a more difficult job.it requires you to remove the hub housing[stubaxle]
the rear bearing are also a pressed fit using a 20 ton press
so if you tackle it yourself ask about it before you start the outer bearing as it is easier to do it at the same time[to remove inner bearings]
1remove brake caliper
2remove trackrod end
3remove stubaxle pinch bolt[this bolt holds the bottom balljoint]
4remove pinch clamp around base of the suspension/spring
then you can remove stub axle which houses the inner bearing
the bearing is held in place by a circlip remove clip and have the new bearing pressed into the stub axle replace the stubaxle circlip replace stubaxle onto car,refit all conponents
once the axle is on refit the outer bearing with new grease
refit nut and tighten then slack off one quarter of a turn refit
the nut cap and refit the split pin then refit the silver cap refit wheel hope this helps good luck m8
