Remove the spindle nut. Remove the washer and outer bearing. Reinstall nut. Slide rotor off enough to feel inner bearing hit nut. Push back on a little then slam the rotor back towards you to knock out seal and rear bearing which will remain hanging on the spindle. Seal should be fine but inspect.[This message has been edited by Lambo nut (edited 10-02-2020).]

Why is it so ******* hard to get anything in my country? Spent 5 hours today driving from store to store trying to get some wheel bearing grease. Not a single place carries it. Even car parts stores only have "General Purpose Grease" or "Ball Bearing Grease" which are really only suitable for skateboards, bicycles, roller skates... And when I tell them a temperature rating of 250F max isn't really suitable for using as a wheel bearing grease in cars, they look at me as if they see water burning...

You would think that these things would require some type of bearing grease

Bit late to the game here, and I hate to say it, but make sure you get one that says DISC BRAKE wheel bearing grease. Lots of the GP stuff is only rated for *non*-disc (ie drum) at a lower temperature, and will break down at higher temps which is bad juju.
