How to service the front wheel bearing and wheel hub on 2008 Ford Explorer Sport Trac?

A first effort to service both the front wheel bearing and wheel hub starts by eliminating the wheel and tire. Drop the caliper and anchor plate assembly away from the brake hose since it poses damage risks. Follow this by replacing the bolts then setting the assembly aside using mechanic's wire for support. Reinstall the caliper while applying torque boots of 165 Nm (122 lb-ft). You must check the wheel speed sensor area after disc cleanup then disconnect the sensor from its assembly with a torque of 18 Nm (13 lb-ft). Discard the former wheel bearing and wheel hub mounting bolts before removing the new ones and tighten each bolt to 122 Nm (90 lb-ft). As part of the reinstall process reverse the steps used for removing the components. Proper retention and performance of critical components depend on using new parts with matching part numbers or equivalent along with specified torque values.
