Did you do it yourself? Would you do it yourself? Any tips, tricks, or is that something that you would let the dealer do?

I did it at a friends who had a press..
You also need a hub puller to do the disassembly. its not really that hard as long as you have the right "pushers" to install the bearings. If you dont have access to a good size press, I think the one I used was 10 ton, I wouldn't attempt it. I dont really have any tips. Push em out, push em in.

I did it on my 98.5 2.8Q a few months ago...I'm in Pikesville, need a hand?
I don't know how comfortable you are with doing things yourself. I'd do it myself again if I had to, even though it was a major PITA. The bolt connecting the two upper links was welded with rust to the housing and I could not get it out after several days of trying different things. Heat would have helped.
