Welcome to AF.
The wheel hub and brake caliper needs to be removed.
Inside the end of hub there is several nuts and locks that require a special socket to remove.
Does it have lock out hubs.
The lock out hub stuff has to come out of hub to get to the bear adjuster/ hold on nuts.
There may be several snap rings holding it in.
One big one the outer side.

Most parts places have the special socket/hub nut remover tools.
Also a good repair manual would help show how to do it.
Good Luck
