How do you change a front wheel bearing on a pajero?

Remove wheel

Remove brake caliper and suspend with a bungee cord to avoid stressing the rubber pipe

Prise off centre of wheel hub cap - it's a push fit

Remove circlip and washer from driveshaft

Remove 6 bolts around drive shaft

Remove splined plate

Remove 2 screws

Remove the locking metal ring with many holes, note the metal tab at the top - must go back same way

Using a socket cut or welded so as it has 2 pegs that fit in the larger 2 holes under the locking ring, remove the nut holding the wheel bearings in

Pull the entire hub off

Drive old bearings out, fit new bearings and pack with grease

Handle hub carefully to avoid the bearings falling out (good idea to put a clean cloth/board beneath the vehicle)

Refitting is a reversal of removal. Torquing procedure for the 2-hole nut advice varies, but Mitsubishi manuals for some models states:

Tighten to 130Nm

Loosen to 0Nm

Tighten to 25Nm

Loosen 30-40 degrees so locking ring fits (align screw holes with holes in locking ring
