how do you know its the wheel bearing?

normally wheel bearings give you a growling noise when driving almost similar to brakes wearing down.

you would need to remove your knuckle from your car and can hammer out the old one be sure to remove the snap ring that holds it in place. the new one needs to be pressed in so if you dont have a press take it to autozone and they can press it for you
if you are sure its your bearing i can give more detailed instructions if need be

Yea... im pretty sure its my wheel bearing.  I am gettin a growling noise.  I am not sure on what side, Im gonna guess its on my side since I am hearing it more on my side of the car and feeling it a little in the steering wheel.


I need a press?  Shit man, I will have to see if I can get mah hands on one.  I defiantely wanna change it, is it complicated?

Any body have some quick tips or instructions on replacing a wheel bearing on a 90 240sx?  I believe its a one piece swap in and out deal.
