How to remove and install front Wheel Hub and wheel bearings on BMW M3?

This procedure is for 2 wheel drive vehicles. The wheel bearings are only removed if they are worn. They cannot be removed without destroying them. They are not periodically disassembled, repacked, and adjusted. To begin, loosen the lug bolts slightly and then raise and safely support the vehicle. Remove the front wheel(s) and the front brake caliper, caliper bracket, and brake rotor. Make sure to support the caliper and avoid putting tension on the brake hoses. Use a suitable chisel to carefully remove the metal protective cap from the hub by wedging the chisel between the cap's outer lip and the hub. Knock the tab on the collar nut away from the spindle using a chisel. Then, using a 1/2 inch drive 46mm socket and a suitable breaker bar, remove the nut by turning it counterclockwise and discard the nut. Remove the hub by hand or use a bearing puller set if necessary. If the inside bearing inner race remains on the stub axle, unbolt and remove the dust guard. Bend back the inner dust guard and pull the inner race off with a special tool. Reinstall the dust guard. To install, if the dust guard has been removed, install a new one. Install a special tool over the stub axle and screw it in for the entire length of the guide sleeve's threads. Press the bearing on. Once the hub/bearing assembly is installed, tighten the wheel hub collar nut to 213 ft. lbs. and lock the collar nut by bending over the tab into the slot in the spindle. Finally, reassemble the remaining components in reverse order of removal.
