I've only done the rear bearings - my biggest spot of advice is that when
the specs for that rear axle nut say 360 foot lbs. they mean it!!! The
first time I did the bearings we tightened that nut as tight as we could
get it and called it good - well let me tell you it is not good. When I
redid the job because of my dumb "that's good" moment (which I will admit
was partially influenced by others) I was sure to borrow a proper torgue
wrench and do it properly.

Thanks,
