Oh here is a dumb question

how do you change wheel bearings in a 1998 HSE P38?

is it true you need an oxy to get them out? what my mechanic said

You need a bloody big press.

The bearings are exxy. I had considered buying this for a spare: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....0697&rd=1&rd=1

It's pretty much what a lot of cars use today. However, it's not outback repair friendly, unlike the original design.
