Micra Vibe front wheel bearing Replacement

[B7TMW]

Ok. Need to do the nearside wheel bearing on the front of a vibe? 1997 1.0 manual.

Whats involved? Obviously hub off and on the bench but are there any tricks to pulling / pushing the bearing out and the new one in? Just after some pointers to make the job go more smoothly

Thanks in advance.

if you hav,nt got access to a hydraulic press, then big socket and even bigger hammer
most of us do it the easy way, and fit another knuckle

Knuckle being hub?

Knuckle being hub?

knuckle being the cast iron body that the hub fits into

There is 1 single bearing in the knuckle I presume?
