I recently did my wheel bearings, but I don't recall the socket sizes I needed..
It's best to do both at the same time, and if your hub assembly is stuck (common) place a socket extension on the back side and use the power steering to push it out. That will save you hours of prying and pounding trying to get it free..
I believe you will need a 1 11/16th socket for the axle nut, the rest will be tools in a common socket/wrench set.
You will need a friend and a long breaker bar, or as in my case and excuse to buy a new air gun.... 550ft lbs in reverse spun it right off
the new air gun paid for itself immediately..
