Default rwd 07 gs 350

Hey guys got a question in regards to hub assembly.from my understanding Awd has a left side and right side...rwd is universal meaning the hub can go on either side.. is there any information on this cause I would like to change out both front sides.and it don't appear to be different in regards to mounting

Is there a DIY for this anywhere? Dealer is asking for 855 for part and labor, just for one side...found a MOOG hub at an auto store near by. Plan on doing the replacement myself. It's a 2006 lexus is350.

Is the assembly the same in the front/passenger for both the 250 and 350?

I'm going to be doing this this weekend and was wondering if anyone can confirm my steps...

1. Jack up and place on stands
2. Remove wheel
3. Pop out wheel center cap
4. Remove axle nut
5. Remove Caliper, Bracket, Rotor
6. Remove 4 bolts for Hub
7. Place wheel back on hub and put lug nuts loosely on, jolt to break the hub free
8. Place new Hub and secure with the 4 bolts (do not need to press in?)
9. Reassemble in reverse.

Did mine over the weekend. Had to use my tie rod puller and the axle nut to push the passenger side axle out of the old hub. That was annoying as hell, lol. Very easy otherwise.

I do know that the AWD hub doesn't have the ABS (black box) on the back. I ordered the AWD by mistake and reordered the correct RWD assembly.
