Get the front brake rotor off and then unfasten the four bolts keeping the hub and bearing to the knuckle in place.

  Q: How to Maintain and Repair Wheel Bearings on Dodge Magnum?

  A:

  Before service or repairs, raise your vehicle and make sure it is well supported. For AWD, get rid of the nuts on the wheel mounts and then pop off the wheel and tire together. Get someone else to apply brakes while holding the axle half shaft still, before you take the hub nut off and reach the brake rotor. Unbolt the four bolts holding the hub and bearing to the knuckle, slide them off the axle half shaft, then take them off the knuckle. For RWD, do the same first steps to take off the tire and wheel assembly and get to the front brake rotor. Open the dust cap carefully to avoid harming the inside of the hub. Once done, take out the hub nut and slide the hub and bearing off the spindle. Before installing hub and bearing onto the axle half shaft on an AWD car, assess the isolation washer, making sure it's present and not harmed and then position it with the knuckle. Fasten the four bolts to 68 Nm and then put in the brake rotor and the disc Brake Caliper assembly. Slide the hub nut onto the axle half shaft and use a breaker bar to tighten it until you reach 213 Nm torque while someone presses the brakes. Put back the wheel and tire assembly, tighten each nut to a torque of 150 Nm, drive down the car, push the brake pedal several times for a strong brake feel, inspect the brake fluid and check the system with a road test. First, slide the bearing and the hub onto the spindle, bolt the hub with tightening nut to 250 Nm torque and then fit the brake rotor and caliper assembly. After putting on a new dust cap, install the wheel and tire assembly, tighten the wheel mounting bolts, lower the car, press down on the brake pedal, inspect brake fluid level and go for a short road test.
