  Q: How to service and repair the wheel bearing and hub on Lincoln Blackwood?

  A: Your first step should be to detach the wheel assembly along with its tire before proceeding to take off the Brake Caliper and anchor plate. Install the components in the specified sequence beginning with the outermost ones. When installing the components follow the steps for removing them in reverse order. First remove all old lubricant from the hub and spindle as well as the bearing cups before assessing their condition for any damage and performing the replications if necessary. Inspection of the spindle requires assessment for pitting or scoring or scratching before deciding on repair or replacement. During the removal of the outer wheel bearing avoid using compressed air to dry it; use solvent instead and thoroughly dry it while inspecting for structural damage and roller entrapment to replace any Faulty parts. Succeed the same procedure on the internal wheel bearing. Utilize appropriate bearing cup installers to put both the inner and outer wheel bearing cups. Apply wheel bearing grease into the wheel bearings by using a bearing packer for both the outer and inner wheel bearing components. You should adjust the front wheel bearing end play by rotating the brake disc with the hub through installation of the spindle nut. Tighten the spindle nut two turns before performing another turn-up of torque during brake disc rotation at a counterclockwise angle. To finish the procedure loosely tighten and then retighten the spindle nut.
