Wheel bearings recommendations....
#4
you are asking what is covered on that one page.
there are many generations of SUV here,
sammi to 2012 GV. 1986 to now.

that is not an assembly like on 1999+ , that part is just a bearing hub.
its just a raw empty hub. why spend $100 x2 , to get what you already have.?
just buy the bearings and press in the cups.
end deal.
the link above is for folks (crashed car) or the bearing seized and fused the races to the hump in a molten mass of death, (catastrophic loss of hub)

1: first look. at yours.
2: if they look ok and feel ok, and are not siezed, now, then buy bearings,
3: press old out, then press new end (all once job at any shop with press) cost me 25 bucks total, and 15min time. waiting. in room.. (they do this every day and are fast)
4: new seals, new grease, and reinstall.
5: set torque to 123 + ft./lbs and land on ring hole ,set the ring lock and screws.
6: brakes back wheel back.

if bearing are seized, car is unsafe to drive, so is moot point. just take it off and see if the damage, has caused, the races to melt. or fuse.
just about all stores in town here have the AC-Delco hubs listed on my find parts page. items 26

had the hubs to the shop, guy
he will tell you if the races are not coming out. or if there is damage there. (bluing , or other horrors)
in most case the old hubs are servicable.... its very rare not to be.
but is possible.
as is all things.
