Help with changing a wheel bearing?

how do you change a front wheel bearing on a 1995 pontiac sunfire.|||buy a 15 dollar hayes manual|||This is a front wheel drive car you%26#039;ll need to take it to a machine shop to have the bearing pressed in. Jack up and support the car. Remove the wheel. Remove the axel nut clip. Using a breaker bar, crack the axel nut loose. Remove the king nuts to the upper and lower ball joints to seperate from the control arm. Support this whole assembly!! Use a nut cracker to remove the ball joint knuckles. Remove the axel nut and pull the steering knuckle assembly off. Take to a shop to have the new bearing installed.|||the bearings arent pressed in there pretty easy to do remove the tire and your brake assembly including rotor,remove your cv axel nut and it should be about three or four torc bit screws that hold in your wheel bearing hub have a heavy hammer ready cuz you usually have to beat them out,hope this helps
