How to service the wheel bearing in an independent rear suspension on Mercury Mountaineer?

A wheel bearing service on independent rear suspensions requires removing the wheel knuckle before proceeding.

Use the press for a second time to remove the bearing from the wheel knuckle until the bearing reaches all the way out. Afterward discard the bearing. No reuse is allowed for either the hub or bearing after their disassembly takes place. The service completion requires performing the installation steps in reverse order of removal.
