Well, I ordered the precision hub bearings from the Partsladi and they arrived in a very timely manner. They are nice and include new wheel lug bolts. I got the right one on yesterday and everything went well. For everones information on this install:

I could not get the torx bolts to break with an air impact, I had to use the wrench to break them loose. Once they broke I was able to pretty much remove them by hand.
Cleaned the bolts on the wire wheel and reinstalled them. Everything went back together well.

Even managed to get the torx bolts torqued. A little imagination with the extensions allowed the wrench to be used. Be sure to jack the car up as far as needed to allow complete turning of the torque wrench.

That's all folks. Next on the list is fixing the steering wheel. It jockeys from side to side. Loose pin way down inside. Not really looking forward to this one, but must be done.
