The rear wheel has play in it...you can rock it back and forth. The bearing either needs adjusting or replacing.
I tried to remove the rear wheel hub assembly but cant get it out. I removed the 4 bolts and pounded on the nut in the back.
I am not sure if the nut has to come off...It turns with the wheel so I am thinking it dosent.
The new replacement hub does not have a nut on the back...only the 4 bolts.
I tried to buy a manual for the van but they are not out yet.
Does anyone have any ideas.
Thx

Was at my friends in the biz's shop and they were fighting like crazy with one rear bearing, FWD only, and non anti-lock and had the whole damn brake and backing plate off to complete it and the brake line spun so a new one of those too. All I know is a slide hammer alone on the studs didn't work with the four bolts out??

I didn't do it but could - it wasn't my job, but decide whether you are up to that much work and have the tools.

They are not adjustable nor greaseable - just replacement,
