9000 T-16 ABS mod 1987
       I took the rotor (Message fromsc) off, and removed the top and lower 
nuts/bolts and removed the entire strut tower. I got to the wheel spindle 
(the axel), and all the ball bearings fell out, together with bits and 
pieces of plastic. I would like to know what all these bits were, (is it a 
spacer between the ball bearings, is this why it seems that I am missing 
two??) and it seems as if I am missing TWO ball bearings!! The noise was 
terrible when I drove it last. Thanks.

I found out that the bearings cannot be replaced seperately. Today I bought
the entire hub assembly. I would like to know if the are any precautions,
tips etc. in replace the hub. Also, should I use a puller to remove the hub,
if so what type?
