Once this is done the real fun begins, if your changing your hub like it states you can count on that being rusted 1000 times worse than the rotor. They dont put any type of anti-seize on them from the factory and their such a tight fit they usually rust into place. I use a technique that involves using the vehicles own power steering system to power the hub out of the knuckle.
