I am very new to both the Pantera world and the internet.  I can only type

three to four words a minute.

 Is it customary to just jump into a conversation here? 

 Well anyway, I just finished replacing the fuel tank in my pantera and as I

was tightening the last of the lug nuts on the drivers side- rear, I kinda

gave the wheel a little spin( it was still jacked-up). I heard a kinda

metallic marbles like sound. Even I knew this couldn't be good!!!  I pulled

the wheel back off- and I guess you guys already know what was up. Is there

any tips or tricks you guys would care to divulge to this poor wretched soul

of a pantera owner???  I have already ordered the SPECIAL socket. What should

I look for and what can I expect to encounter while changing the rear

bearings?  Is it necessary and/or wise to change both sides?? (like

headlights)  Thanks
