[T3] Replacing Real Wheel Bearings

Thanks for all the info, folks! So it sounds like I need a 12-point, 6mm socket 
head Allen socket to remove those CV bolts, if I want to take them off. I may 
just end up regreasing the CV's, leaving the inner rear ball bearings alone, and 
replacing the roller bearings since it seems there's a chance I can get them 
out. They do have a tad of play in them, up-and-down-wise. I just have to figure 
out how to get them out, since only about 30% of the bearing's outer diameter is 
exposed after taking off the top piece that holds the seal. I don't want to 
bugger them in the off chance that I can't get them out.

Thanks again!

- Doug :-)
