First off, im no mechanic, but i'm quite handy and i dont think this should be such a difficult task.
I know a few ppl on here have changed their bearings and im just asking for a final check to make sure ill have everything i need.

first i need to jack up the car, and put in jackstands. after that i take off the wheel and the brake rotor. i undo the clip behind the bearing and take out the bad bearing. then i press in the new bearing(do i need some special tool for this?) Then i put the clip back in and replace the rotor and the wheel and im done.
Is that correct, or did i miss something? Thats how ive gathered that its done, but im not positive.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as im planning on replacing this thing ASAP, its clicking and grinding and driving me nuts!
Also, any special tools i would need to do this(a press?), and how much should a replacement bearing cost me?
Thanks for the help! biggrin.gif
