    So my girlfriend has a 1995 GP SE and the pass. hub is bad, had the light scanned by O'Reillys.

    I've never done one on a pre-gen, I've heard there are possibly four bolts holding the bearing from the back?
    and does anyone know what the axle nut size is?

    any other differences I should be aware of?

    and (just out of curiosity) are the back similar to the procedure of the 97-03?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes there are 4, I think it's a 36 but I kept getting different size nuts with the different bearings I did, worst part about the job was just was just breaking loose the corroded bolts holding it in the first time I did it.

    I did it yesterday, and luckily, all of those corroded bolts you speak of came out in one piece. I ended up having to reuse them and despite the corroded ends, the thread was intact. Th axle nut turn out to be a 35.
    I'd say the hardest part about it was was indeed those 4 bolts holding the hub bearing from the back. Even after breaking them they were stubborn to back out of the hub completely.

    If you like those have you tried doing ball-joints on one?

    No.. but I've heard stories.
    And I wouldn't say I like those, but there are worse things to do in life. Like a colonoscopy...lol
