How do I change the Hub and Bearing on a 1998 Honda Accord? If there isn't anyone who knows, can I be given a link to place that might know, or a source that could lend me more information on the subject?

Thanks.

It will similar to the same procedures I wrote up below :

Replacing rear wheel bearings/hubs are super simple.

Obviously, torque specs will vary. I'd suggest that you buy an inexpensive Haynes Manual from eBay.

Are the instructions for the Accord the same as the Ford Taurus? Are there any differences that I should be aware of?

The rear should be the same, but the front will differ somewhat. On the front, you will likely need a special tool and press to separate the hub from the knuckle. You will also need a ball joint remover. Without a manual and special tools, you should have the front professionally done.
