Don't try the job without it because there really is no way. I had to pay $20 for one socket but it was worth it.How to: -Remove wheel (duh)-Using a Torx bit (T50) remove the lower bolt on the brake caliper-DO NOT TOUCH THE TOP CALIPER BOLT which is inside the rubber boot, once you have the bottom bolt off you can rotate the caliper up and simply slide it off the top bolt-Tie the caliper up so it isnt hanging off the brake line -Remove the caliper bracket (two 15mm bolts)-Remove brake disc-Remove center dust cap-Now you will see the 36MM bolt, it will look like a steel cage/retainer, that is the actual bolt. Factory torque is 250lbs so take your new 36MM socket (told you that it would be needed) and and impact wrench or huge breaker bar to remove (I used impact and it was off in 5 seconds)-Pull off entire hub assembly-Clean everything good. I then put a little synthetic bearing grease on the shaft and put it all back togetherToo bad you aren't closer, I would just have you come here and I would do it for you. BTW - I bought a pair of brand new hubs exactly like you pictured off Ebay for $67 shipped. Like the setup better too because it has a solid ABS ring, not the hollow one like OEM which bends so easily.</blockquote>
