how hard is it to rebuild 10 bolt knuckles
 
I need to change out the rotors, pads, axle seal, and hub bearings but I have never done it before. I have done a lot of other stuff to my truck but nothing like this. I heard that its not that difficult but I would rather consult some people that have done it before. Is there anywhere online that has a step by step on how to do this?

About the hardest part will be getting the spindle hub off the steering knuckle. I use a special tool that threads on the spindle and uses a slide hammer to pull it off.
