[Supras] Drivers side front knuckle

[Bob]

The last time I did this as on a 5 year old Mr2 and the bearing was frozen
into the hub so bad that the machine shop bent the cast iron hub removing
it.

This wasn't some Mickey Mouse shop either and there are several horror
stories about similar situations from other shops and mr2 owners.

If I have to replace just the bearing I will...

I'd suggest you just replace the bearing.  You don't want to cash in your
known bad bearing for an uknown knuckle that may be worse or on it's way to
the same fate.

The bearing of course must be R&R on a press, and any competent shop can do
this.  Save a buck on labor by pulling the knuckle off for them if you'd
like...
