What year? I would take a look at the relays and fuses that are under the left kick panel on the 11-13’s. Most of the relays in that area are the same, so you should be able to swap them around.

The hub has to be pressed out with a hydraulic press. Need to remove the knuckle and do some rigging to get something solid to press against. If you are just wanting to replace the hub, you will also need to replace the bearing. The bearing will get damaged when it is pressed out. When I parted out ...
