Rear wheel bearing for Megabusa

[robsawyer]

Hi

How easy is it to inspect/repack or replace a rear wheel bearing on a factory Megabusa?

The car has Westifield alloy hubs and each has a very large lock nut holding the hub on.

Do I assume the brakes disc needs to be removed also?

Can the lock nut be reused? or is it best to buy a new set from Westfield? (or other?)

Also what's the torque setting for the nut?

Where can I get new bearings from? are they standard Ford ones? or do I get them from Westfield?

Finally is any special grease needed for the bearings?

Thanks in advance

its a sealed bearing and will come with a new nut

you need to take the upright off to press the bearing out
