X-Type rear wheel bearing - done....
I had to start the Job a few times because I did not havea T-50 torx socket that would fit through the hole in the hub. Then I could not get one of the 4 loose without an impact gun.
The 4 screws that hold the hub to the rear carrier were fairly rusty and the threads were tight all the way out, I had to run a tap through them to clean it up before re-assembly.
Overall the job could be fast, but took me 3 attemts to get it done, the first two times I had to put it back together to move the car.
just a FYI... jag genius, I tried to do the bushings in the rear, even borrowed a puller kit from CT.. but I could not get the bushing out.
I have a new Job starting in Toronto, so maybe I'll bring it to you to do!!

Jag Genius said it was not too bad to get them out, with the arm on the car,
he said you need the tool but he also said "you are smart, you will figure something out" hhaah guess he was wrong.
While I had the bushing end of the arm dropped down, I could see mine were intact, so there is no great urgency.
