Help! Replacing the spindle... im clueless

Recently got into an accident and the guy at the shop told me i had a bent spindle... i picked up a new one and am going to replace it... i've never done anything like this before, any tips or suggestions? I pulled the wheel off last night and was checkin it out and it just looked like simple bolt off bolt on stuff...
thanks

It's not too bad, just take your time and have a big hammer handy to seperate the ball joint. You will see how it all comes apart as you go. Email me if you need specific instructions and I'll see what I can remember.

Get the TQ spec's for the caliper bolts and other key components, as you want these TQ'd properly. It is a fairly straight forward project, just take your time since it is new to you. You will probably need to have the front end aligned after the work is done.
