Thumbs up 98 xjr wheelbearing

Just bought this car and was driving it home when the bearing went. Simple fix if u have the right tools and someone to press out the old bearing .This is what i had to do : bought a ball joint fork was able to break loose both ball joints and tierod with cresant wrench and hammer ,took caliper and rotor off ,then took the spindle assembly to a ford dealer where the mechanic and i used an air hammer to take off the abs nut. He pressed out the bearing then installed the new one that i had purchased. Total cost was with buying tools including a jack and stands was 237.00 plus one more night in a hotel with my beautiful wife that followed right behind in her 2000 s type
