Good job and checking and re tightening wheel bearings! I once said you can't over tighten adjusting nut (1st 54mm nut against claw washer). As frankly most 54mm sockets are hard to hold on the thin nut. I once (no longer), used "hitting 75ft-lbf on adjusting nut". As sign to replace wheel bearings, at the next 30K miles service. Not out of concern bearing bad. The higher the torque we reach to get target (9.5 to 15lb) breakaway preload, the better the condition of bearings & races. My concern was damaging the threads of the adjusting nut going over 75ft-lbf of torque. But someone on ih8mud, did the math. Said the adjusting nut threads, can handle 150ft-lbf without to threads. I've since hit as high as 82ft-lbf torque to get 12.5lb preload. BTW: I find new bearings, torque comes in at 45 to 47ft-lbf at 12.5lb preload consistently. Bad bearing I only get about 20ft-lbf for the same 12.5lb preload. Tip: 1)Never reuse snap ring. If one must reuse, pinch/bend them closed, before install. Or they fit loose, not seating all they way into axle groove. Which damages axle groove, and is why they axle get burns needing to file down to get hub flange off. Sometimes they'll than pop off. Additional gap between them and hub flange needs to be less than 0.20mm. So snap ring needs to be of a proper thickness. Factory thickness is 2.2mm. I use a lot of 2.4 & 2.6mm and even a 2.8mm now and than, to get proper gap. 2) Use brass to pound on hub flange studs, to pop out cone washers. Steel damages the studs. Never hit on the nut, which loose/stretches thread of nut and studs. 3) Don't reuse lock washer. If one must reuse, it must have a good keep/key (inside tab) tab. And never re bent a tab that has been bent back straight. 4) Grease, bearings an wheel hub, need to be, above about 60F. If too cold, we get a false high reading on spring scale, as grease thicken form cold.

Awesome! I enjoy them alot! Gas mileage suffered but power was still decent and didn't even think about re-gearing. I may go 35" next time, still have some time to think about it. Rotate your tires often to keep them evenly worn.

Thank you this helped me a lot

Great video, just curious if this took the majority of play out of your hub assembly, or did you have to repack/replace? It did look quite loose, I'd assume that fixed the issue if your bearings were still in good shape...

@lillyautomotive

Yes bearings were fine and torquing the jam nut to spec removed all the play. I did end up replacing the bearings a few months later becuase I was going on a coast to coast road trip and didn't want any issues. I have 50k miles plus another repack on the replacements no issues to speak of.

Nice job I need to do this . My 100 Lexus is having play in the wheel like this . I can just tighten it , or do I have to replace the bearing ? I have similar play in both side of the wheel . It’s causing my steering to be a little loose . I thought that the tied rod was going bad so I bought some but haven’t replace it yet .

You can tighten it up and see if it helps. Ideally, I'd take the bearing apart, clean & inspect, reassemble & repack the bearing.

Hey bro for that last grease step to grease the spindle bearing you had a little DIY tool. Looks like a PVC cap filled with grease and you might have hit it on the back to shove the grease past the splines into the spindle? Is that how that works? Hoping you can share some info on that so I can save from having to order a tool. Thanks! Great video! EDIT nevermind just saw you have a video for it!

Love your videos, definitely subscribed. The book shows measuring preload at essentially top dead center, does it matter? I can get nearly 60 lb ft and still only be about 8, just wondering.

@lillyautomotive

It doesn't matter where you measure preload as long as your pulling 90° around the circle. I'm sure it's easier to do this / visualize 90° at top dead center. I've read if it takes above 75 ft lb, to get in range, it's time for new bearings at the next service. But I don't have first hand experience with that.

What’s the symptoms of a loose bearing? Does it feel like a tire is out of balance?

@lillyautomotive

4 жыл бұрын

It can, it would have to be pretty severe. When jack up the front end with a tire or tires in the air, hands at 12 and 6 rock the tire in and out. If there is play the bearings are loose, can also be due to bad ball joints too. Do again at 3 and 9. Play in this direction can be loose bearing as well as inner outer tie rod ends, but if the front spindle is solid and the wheel itself is moving then bearings.

Noob question..what is pre-load and break away? I didn't quite understand why you were torquing/fish scale/retorquing...

@lillyautomotive

4 жыл бұрын

Preload is how tight the bearing is being compressed by the double nuts. Too loose is better than too tight but both are bad. Break away is a way to measure the preload placed on the bearing being tested with the fish scale. Toyota specified the range that is acceptable. Break away is just how much force it take to get the rotor to spin The tighter the nuts are on the bearing the higher break away reading you will see on the fish scale and vice versa.
