Has anyone ran into replacing a wheel bearing on these cars? I am working on one and it appears to have female torx heads. Anyone know what size they are?

I assume you are referring to the front hub bearing?
If it is the same as a Jeep it is a 13mm 12point.
What year and engine?

Ah I figured it out. Cars done and everythings set.

It was a E14 IIRC. Had to buy a set to get the one I wanted. Regular old sockets will not work... or I should say, it would NOT be a good idea. Those suckers are on there awfully tight, and one wrong oops and it'll make your day unpleasant.
Who ever was in there before me striped the one out closest to the tie rod... That is the WORST one to get at too.

Never had to do one at home, only at work.
Sure it is much more difficult without a lift and air.

Realistically, it only took me 25 minutes to do it MINUS the trip to the store and 20 minutes rummaging through my tool chest/boxes.
