Hello,
The job itself is straight forward, now you should have guessed that there is a 'but' coming.
The 'but' in this case revolves around the requirement for a special puller to remove the epicyclic hub from the outer axle shaft. In all probability it will only be your MF dealer who has this puller. In the UK Churchill used to make the special tools for MF but apparently it was found that their screw puller was insufficient to remove the hub, hence the introduction of a heavier hydraulic version. Check with your dealer first. The rest of the job is straight forward. Be sure to inspect the gear teeth for any evidence of damage.
Cheers
DavidP
