there is a great article for the vr4 in the members section which cost £20 per year to join (I sure the article is quite close on a V6 as the VR4 but someone will no doubt confirm )

Hi and welcome to the mad house , have fun

Yeah I can confirm its the same. I used the article when I changed one of mine rear bearings on the V6 a few months ago. Very helpful guide with step by step instructions backed up with photos.

Seeing as you can't see the member's section - Here's a quick rundown so you're not left high and dry! :scholar:

Jack the car up

Remove the wheel, followed by the disc - The disc isn't bolted in, but it can be a pain to remove as the handbrake shoes drag on it as you pull it away, even with the handbrake down.

Once that's off, you can see the bearing - you change the entire hub. Just remove the four bolts from the rear and you can prise it away and off! Easy..... For me to say!!!

Have a look at this too - lots of info if you search for it.:scholar:
