=== Front hubs and Wheel Bearings === While apart, replace the hub wheel seal and repack the bearings. Wheel seals are very inexpensive; I used Beck Arnley seals and didn't pay more than $8.00 for both front seals. If your bearings are in poor condition, you must also replace the bearing races. If this is necessary, drive them out, carefully, with a drift punch and tap new races in. Also, be sure to use a good quality, high-temp, disc-brake wheel grease. I use a synthetic Valvoline grease (red) that works well. Additionally, make sure to properly pre-load the bearings (tighten to specified torque and back off nut 1/4 turn) and install a new dust cap. Help brand replacement products (available at most auto part stores) sells a cap that fits well (though, tightly); take your old cap in and match it up. ![https://dev.z31library.com/xenonzcar_archive/z31/images/front%20strut/rotor2.png 1984-1986 style front hub] 1984-1986 style front hub
