Can someone here inform me if the front wheel bearing on my 2002 LGT is a sealed insert to be pressed in or if it is a complete part to be bolted in? My Chilton's manual is no help and a web search is becoming futile at this point.
If someone knows if I can visually see what kind of part it is by having a look behind the wheel without taking everything apart, this will be appreciated as well, just tell me what to look for...


Thanks

The front wheel bearing is something you press-in...just had to do this because of a rusty ball-joint leading to a cracked spindle, etc etc. The rear wheel bearings for the BE/BH is a bolt-in unit.
