Hey mate! You always replace the hub assembly it’s cheap and makes a great repair!

Great video, thank you very much. Question, did you leave the Ring that protects the speed sensor, or did you land that in when you removed the bearing. Also, will this process work on a 2010 ACURA TL?

U don't press against the middle it will ruin the bearing

This man was thorough and explained everything in exact direction. This is by far one of the best instructional I've watched.

I second that. Very well explained. Couldn’t find it specific to my vehicle, but this is so clear I don’t need it anymore.

This is by far the best instruction video on replacing a FWD front wheel bearing. I’m a Honda tech by trade, and I can say that every steps, tips, and cautions are all spot on. Only thing I might say is that by using the impact gun you may damage the threads on the tool prematurely, especially if it’s a cheaper quality installation tool.

The best wheel/hub bearing video ive seen yet. Very well explained. Clearly! Even a 6 year old could understand the steps. Now i just need to grab the press kit for myself instead of renting one whenever i come across this type of job. Thanks dude!

Great video! Straight to the point without any unnecessary babbling, annoying music etc.

A Dremel is enough to put a cut into the race. It doesn't take much of a cut to get the tip of chisel in to crack it. I've done both. Next time I'll reach for my Dremel.

I just place a chisel between the race and the hub, go around hammering not too hard and the race starts to separate, i foumd no need to cut into the race

You made this so easy. I’ve never done it before and finished it in under 3 hours. Thank you!

I've watched a lot of repair videos for different repairs and this guy is good. Thank you so much for this video. So well explained.

Best video on the subject. Thank you, now I have the confidence to do it. Too many people on KZread assume everyone understands “specialty” tools, thank you for the explanation.

Best wheel bearing install video I’ve seen. Great job.

The best what, how, why, video on press in wheel bearing out there. There are too many videos on the subject that all they seem to be doing is showing off how well their impact wrench works without hardly any what and why. Thanks Repair Geek.

Really thorough instruction of the tools and process. This vid will definitely help any DIYer get through the process with an understanding beforehand, which could otherwise be intimidating. Great job!

Great video. Well explained and nice photography. On a comment, someone said put the new bearing in the freezer before installing to shrink it, goes in lots easier. Thanks for sharing.

This has been the best video I have found on how to do this. Mt car is similar to how this one was and made it so much simpler than what other videos are showing. Thank you

I just did this on my wrx following this guide, the driver side front bearing was completely toast. I was originally going to take off knuckle, take it to a shop to get it pressed, then get an allignment after. Was able to do it for just the cost of the bearing itself. Thank you!

The best detailed info on replacing a wheel bearing. Thank you! ( Especially the part of making sure the hub fits on cv axel spline)

I have used my dumb bells instead of that special tool to remove my rusty hub yesterday. Seeing that tool on KZread helped me to realize what I need when I was struggling and it worked out

I finished doing my daughter's 2018 Buick. I bought the press tool although it was a different brand. I followed this video and everything worked great. I do not have an impact, but a cheater bar worked. A couple of things were different on this Buick. I had to take the tie rod loose. The snap ring was on the back side. After removing it, the bearing had to be pressed out the back and installed from the back. Was still able to do it on the car. I really appreciate this video. I probably would not have tried diy without it. There are a lot of videos on this subject, but this was the best.

Highly detailed instructions absolute THE BEST

Thank you so much for this video. After watching this I'm confident I can change mine rather than paying the dealership to do it or buying pre-pressed full knuckles. You so right, the bearing and new hub are quite inexpensive. I can get both for less than $100! And the pre-pressed full kuckle would have cost me $900 for both!

Just done it .. keep the bearing straight kinda tricky . I use hammer and old bearing to put then straight before using this tools.. it works perfectly . Thanks for the video

Thank you for a very thorough explanation of the job. Will be using your instruction when I do my front bearings.

i like it.....i used to pull the whole knuckle off and lugged it over to the big press...if you have the right tool, your way works great...our problem many times is the snap ring is rusted solid into the knuckle or some other Northeast problem because of salt and rust...great job

Best video on this I have seen yet! Thank you very much!

Absolutely awesome video. I feel like every other video pulls the hub and then just tells you to "put it on you hydraulic press". This was super detailed and perfect for the everyday DIYer that doesn't have multi thousand dollar tools. Thank you sir!

Outstanding explanation. Detailed and didn't seem long and boring.

Fantastic explanation. I’ve changed the rear wheel bearings before, no problem. But the front is a different animal. Going to this wheel bearing puller, so thanks for the insight

Awesome. Very detailed and easy explanation of the process. I am replacing both front bearings on my Mitsubishi Outlander. I bought also the hubs. Going to be easier to replace both bearings and hubs. Thank you very much.

Superb video, the camerawork, narration and explanations and tips are spot on. Thank you for taking the time in producing this video and sharing your knowledge.

I never waste time hitting the like button. But your video made this job so much less stressful that I hit it for you. Thank you for making it! I'm almost done with my bearing job.

One of the best diy I have seen! Thank you

Thank you so much for this tutorial. Just changed the bearings on a 2010 Mercedes B200 and this tutorial helped tremendously.

This demonstration was very understandable! Thank you very much. 😊

Nice to see it done properly, most end up pushing on the inner to get the outer diameter and vice versa, damaging the bearin by apply massive static side loads!

Good Video. Quick, simple and accurate. Thank you

Finally found a video that they actually teach you how to use the tool everyone else I have seen would just talk and talk and talk and not get to the point

Very nice presentation. I do personally enjoy watching your videos. You explain everything for the correct install. And you give secert tricks along the way. So thanks buddy 😎

Thank you Thank you Thank you!! This is without a doubt the best instructional video I could find on this topic. My dude is a hero!

Wow!!! This is The BEST and most detailed instructional video on this procedure that I have found! I really don’t know how it could be any better. Certainly gives me some confidence in performing this on my Pilot. Thanks for such a Great Job! New Sub and Ringing da Bell😊👍👍

Awesome job explaining, I just finished my bearing job you are correct I'll need a new abs speed sensor and they are not cheap. Sure wish I had seen this video prior. I had chosen the Dorman complete knuckle assembly but after four weeks of waiting I changed the bearing and abs sensor.

I have this tool. Never use impact gun but now i got to do it. Locks so easy.

Wire wheel to clean out the snap ring groove. Assemble using a very light oil. Nice video.

Great video, you explained most important info. I needed because I don't own a press, thanks very much!

I always thought you needed to use the outside of the bearing to push it in, not the inside. I do them just like bushings, I would have used a larger plate to cover the entire bearing and push it in by the outer race, if you push it in using the inner race you can damage the bearings.

@chadcramer4024

If you watch going in he pushed on the outside!

@kay-zed4407

He did use the inner bearing to press in the hub. That is the correct way to install the hub as it does not put pressure on the bearings and keeps both halves of the inner race together. If you are pressing on just the outer race there is a good probability that the inner race opposite the hub will get pushed out of the bearing destroying it. *Depending on what kind of tool is used obviously.

Best video by far pertaining to this topic!

Excellent video the best so far. it cleared a few doubt I had about this project

Thanks for the well delivered process! Great job.

Thank you so much. You were the only one who made such a detailed video i could find on here.

VERY thorough and informative. Good video.

If you're not an instructor you need to be. Great job. Show and tell is everything.

As a DIY'er thank yiu very much. Makes perfect sense in 20/20 hindsight

I prefer your wheel bearing replacement its straight forward an easy to repair.all good thanks for the information

Many thanks for this instructional video! Succesfully changed the front bearings on my Land Rover Freelander 1 with the help of it. EDIT: Just remember to remove the circlips before trying to push out the bearing :D And fit new ones after installing the new bearing.

Thsnk you, thank you, thank you for the demo on this. Most helpful. Acura MDX dust shield removal, this helped a lot.

You’re a master at your work excellent explain very well

Very well done tutorial, greatly appreciated.

Thanks for showing all the steps necessary and giving a complete commentary on this..Other videos often miss out all the information needed to complete all the steps necessary and leave us guessing, I find.

That is what I needed! Step by step, thank you!❤👋😁

Outstanding video! Love the explanation of everything

Truly excellent instructions. Well done!!

From Scotland. The snap ring is usually rusted up so bad that its almost rusted away, I find that welding washer or bit of steel to it , then use a slid hammer with vice grips, will shift it. It's all down hill from then. Good demo, by the way.

Great video thanks man. Good tips and pointers!! I am getting ready to do this on my daughters' 2005 Accord and was a little worried as I do not have a press. Problem solved! SUBSCRIBED

Great video! Thanks for posting this!

First time I replaced front bearings I ended up taking the knuckles off as the slide hammer wasn't able to get the hub out of them and made a huge racket that my neighbors probably weren't too happy with as I work on the street. I got one hub out with a small sledgehammer pounding a large impact socket that I used as a drift, but the other one just wouldn't budge so I took it to a shop to be pressed out. I got the rest done using this Astro Pneumatic tool, which was pretty straightforward. I can verify that getting wheel speed sensors out of old and rusty knuckles is almost impossible to do without breaking them, because I tried this on a 30 year old car last year and broke both of the rear ones. Each costs around $350 so I now have to either do without and put up with that annoying ABS light (or just pull the fuse) and of course no ABS, shell out $700 for new ones, or try to jerry-rig ones out of the old sensor cables which are fine and a hall effect sensor (or whatever sensor they use) with the right voltage output and a rod that fits just right in the hole. I'm going to try the latter first. Also, you should grease or lube that forcing bolt before using this tool, to make things go easier and protect the threads. And, different cars have different pressed-in bearing setups, with some coming out the outboard side and some coming out the inboard side. It's basically wherever that snap ring goes. Btw snap rings are well-named because when you remove them they snap at you, so wear eye protection folks or put something solid in front of them when you remove them.

Have an Audi Q7 and need to replace front bearing, good video man..

Great explanation dude! Thanks!

Excellent explanation,thank you!

Very nice video. I have this exact same bearing puller/installer set. The anti-sieze all over the bolt and washers is a must. I haven't used mine with an impact yet but here in the rust belt, a 4 foot pipe wrench is often the best for turning these seized bearings out.

Wow nice job, pretty straight forward. Thanks

Excellent video!! I was contemplating taking my new hub and bearing to a shop to get it pressed. But I think I'll buy a bearing press kit and slide hammer.

Dude, I love your personality and common sense. You just got a subscriber and a like, and I rang the bell for all notifications. Thank you so much for this!

Nailed it! I totally agree with Mike C. Best instruction video for replacing a FWD front wheel bearing (and without removing the steering knuckle). I never would have guessed that you can do this on the car. Thank you so much RG. Oh, and your sound & camera work are exceptional!!!

Very well done tutorial, greatly appreciated.. Very well done tutorial, greatly appreciated..

You did a hell of a video instruction piece by piece the best video say hi from Puerto Rico

Solid video. As for everyone saying to anti-seize, loctite, or lubricate the splines, this is actually incorrect. (I live in northern canada, I'm familiar with 8 months of snow and anything possible rust-welding together...) The tolerances, assuming you're using decent parts. are tight enough that what you apply will be almost entirely pushed out towards the hub as you tighten the axle nut. This can result in, depending on the design of the hub, you hydrostatically locking the fastener during clamping. Which will not only wildly skew torque readings, but also put immense pressure on your components and cause premature failure. Anyone who's ever torqued bolts in blind holes, such as engine blocks is likely familiar with the fact that even a tiny bit of oil between your fastener its clamped object can crack straight through solid metal while torqueing it down. This is the same principle, less likely to happen but still entirely possible. TLDR ; Fluids don't compress, and cause bad things to happen. Read the manufacturers installation procedure and only apply the specified lubricant if a wet torque is provided. Most vehicle manufacturers will even deny warranty payout to dealerships if there is evidence of a lubricated fastener where a wet torque is not provided. ALWAYS RTFM, if it seems odd then look for a service bulletin to confirm or deny it.

Great vid. (as always) - thanks!!

Marvelous video, thanks.

Fkn awesome, need my daily civic SI done. Ordering the bearings now. Thanks again.

Your high and top quality video and outstanding step by step effective instructions made me subscribe.

Hey Bro Thanks for sharing this video really appreciated now i could do my 06 Honda Odyssey.

Many years ago I did a Toyota Corolla and those models CV shafts bolted to the transmission instead of spline shaft slide-in. Remove four bolts, the outer shaft nut and it came out without unbolting/removing anything else. Super easy. To bad they all aren't made that way.

Excellent video, thanks a lot!! Greetings from Italy!

You're the best and a real G.O.A.T

Great step by step video.

This is a great instructional video.
