| has any one changed a wheel hub on a Mazda 3? i know how to take off the caliper and rotor but for the hub do i need a special tool or do i just take out the bolt in the center of the hub and just pull it out | |

| There's a little more to it than that. And you will have to figure out if the hub is a bolted in style, or a press in style. The bolted in one are a lot easier than the press in style. | |

| Buy yourself a real floor jack and jackstands before you drop that thing on yourself. | |

| Yeah i'm pretty sure these hubs need to be pressed into the spindle... can hammer them off but have to be pressed in. | |

| yes its a press in. And make sure the new one gets pressed in the right way cause it matters for the wheel speed sensor, good luck. | |
