Yes, the wheel bearings on both my Monte Carlo and Durango are all one sealed
unit.  The main difference being that the Monte Carlo front and rear bearings
have speed sensors in them for the ABS system.  Often, they are the reason why
you end up having to replace the entire bearing.  It will cause the ABS light
to come on if they are faulty.  I have a ABS scanner that can tell me while
speed sensor is bad.  Otherwise, it is a guessing game.

My most recent repair was replacing the tires on the Harley.  A friend of mine
brought over his bike jack and showed me how to remove the wheels - which
included having to remove the muffler.

I got had ordered new tires, got them mounted and balanced at the local Harley
shop and then last week, but the new ones back on the bike.  Not a super easy
task, espcially when working alone on the rear tire.
