yes ... do it .... i did it and it was well worth it.

i agree that you should get a machine shop to do it with a press. It doesnt do the wheel bearing any good by hammering it in. its not built for lateral impacts.

remember to get a geometry done too .. .after you install the parts.

my box (2001 base) .. , i realized that my entire geo was out of whack from the old suspension. the rear toe in ... was like nearly 4 degrees!!!
