How to Replace a Front Hub/Wheel Bearing: 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix
Here I show you how to replace the front non serviceable wheel bearing on any similar front wheel drive application. The vehicle I'm working on is a 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix. This style wheel bearing is very common on many GM front wheel drive applications and usually need replacement at 100k miles. Common problems include a short developing in the wheel speed sensor, and the grease drying up, causing play and eventually squealing.
How To Remove Pressed-on Bearings - EricTheCarGuy
http://www.ericthecarguy.com/
I know this one does not cover an entire procedure but it just worked out this way. I did however want to show how to remove this type of bearing should you run into it. I didn't show the installation for 2 reasons on this, first, I just didn't have the time to shoot it, and second I recommend pressing new bearings on rather than hammering them into place (I don't have a press yet). I would say that hammering them is OK but you risk damage to the bearing and if that happens it is a lot of work and more money to fix it. Be sure to wear your safety glasses!

2003 Mazda Front Wheel Bearing Replacement (Press In Type Bearing)
Wheel bearing replacement in a 2003 Mazda Protege 5. Press in style bearings done without using a shop press. Specific for Mazda Protege, but many of the techniques will apply to vehicles with pres-in-style wheel bearings.
It's a good idea to try to use the bearing-press-kit the way it was intended. If the bearing doesn't budge, BE CAREFUL using a breaker bar. The bolt supplied with the press-kit is not very strong...it with probably shear off the head. Try to give the bearin a few hits with a sledge hammer as seen in the vid..it will get the bearing moving. Then you can use the press-kit, and it should finish pressing out the bearing.
Pressing in the bearing with the kit should be no problem.
