We were quoted $900 CAD to get this done . Instead it will now cost us $175 CAD for the parts . This is great . Thank you .

Thanks for the great video, it helped me changing my bearing. Only request is to list bolt & nut torques if you happen to know them. But thanks again for the detailed, easy to follow video

Thanks for your reply. I dont know the torque settings off hand.

Helped. Appreciate.

There's an easier way to remove the race without cutting into the hub. Get a socket and extension and put the hub race down in a vice. Let the hub spin ontop of the socket. Grab a torch and heat the race while spinning the hub. It will simply slide off the hub and you wont need to clean the damaged grove.

You're lucky. My ball joint and tie rod end are rusted and siezed in.

They have to be able to come out one way or another.. they would need to be replaced if worn out..

Thanks for the video. I have a very rusty but trusty '02 about the same condition. Yikes.

My bearing has been loud for a while. I don't imagine the spindle or hub is any good anymore...

I've worked on some really bad bearing before and the hubs and spindle were fine. You should definitely get the bearing replaced asap

1:48 untill you learn how to hang a calipper from a zip tie or something, you're going to keep getting thumbs down.

Thanks for your pointless comment... .. .. cause the brake hose that withstands 3000psi of pressure can't support a 2lb caliper hanging there.

@@UncleTinman Although it makes sense initially, you might want to rethink that logic. You could talk to an engineer about internal pressure rating and compare it to sheer strength and tensile strength of the compression fittings and hoses. They are not the same in any way. Also dont forget about the fact that hoses and fittings get old and the rubber breaks down/ gets brittle. It is bad practice to hang a caliper off the hose no matter how many times you get away with it.

In a Toyota Echo you'll hear the noise of bad wheel bearings twice.
