Default Looking for DIY rear wheel bearing replacement 2001 A4 2.8 quattro

that would include all suspension parts removal so that I can bring whole knuckle with hub to my friends machine shop for bearing removal/new bearing installation.
Video of this job would be great.

Thank you.

Hello,

Here is another article I found that should help you get the job done:

Also, here is the link for the rear bearing if needed:

Thank a lot to both of you guys, great instructions.
I found this great video on youtube where you put one hand on spring and spin the wheel, if you feel anything bearing is bad.

I am stuck on step 12, removed nut from the bolt,but bolt is stuck in bushing.
Tried rubber mallet , no luck. Thinking about getting larger C clamp,mine is only 4 inches diameter.
Any other ideas?
