I use that on my Lesbaru, still a beeatch of a job in the driveway.
Does your buddy have a lift?
:-k
As for the bearings, they were really easy on my car (Hyundai). They are sold as an assembly where the bearings are already pressed in a hub. All that was needed was to take off the wheel, remove the dustcap over the center nut, remove the center nut and slide the assembly off the axle. To install, reverse the steps.
The old oil gets dumped in the home heating oil tank to be "recycled" into hot air and I don't have to pay for the disposal fees.

Can you do this without any modifications?
I figured that spent motor oil was too different in viscosity or something.
Heating oil is much more similar to diesel and kerosene than to motor oil, as far as I know.
You're correct on the heating oil/diesel thing. They are one in the same except heating oil has a dye added to it. If you get caught using it in your vehicle the authorities get pissed (heating oil isn't taxed as much as diesel and Uncle Sam doesn't like you not paying taxes).
