Default front wheel hubs next; tips?

My front passenger wheel hub is bad so I will be replacing both front hubs very soon. Rovers North has 2 proline wheel hubs for $600 and that includes 2 new ABS sensors! Anyways I found a couple videos on youtube on replacing the hubs on a Disco 2 and it looks like an easy job, perhaps easier than say the power steering job I did last weekend. As always Im open to any tips your guys may have for me.

- Is there anything unique about doing this job?

- Will I need to use special tools or replace any other parts when I remove the old hubs?

-Should the hardware that holds the hub in place be replaced or would it be alright to resue old hardware with the new hubs?

-Will I have to reset or program any on board computers once the hubs and sensors are replaced?

-Will changing the hubs effect my steering alignment?

- IS it as easy as it looks to do this job at home with basic tools?

Thanks much

EDIT: Wrong thread. Mobile site is being weird.

Old *** thread

Do not buy Proline wheel hubs or proline abs sensors from Rovers North. Rubbish.

I didn't intend to respond to this thread. This is the second time the mobile site has posted my comment to the wrong thread.
