Just finished watching the whole video and this mechanic really knows her stuff and is REALLY effective at communicating well. She needs to have her own channel. Thank you.

I just wanna give the woman credit where credit is due. I thought this video was frickin amazing. Not only because she was a woman doing what she did with the skill level she did it, and I don't mean that to sound sexist if it does. I mean that very respectful. But because I don't know anybody who could have explained the job any better. Never works on one of these till now. Done several others. Had trouble getting the lower ball joints unseated. Thought I was doing something wrong. Watched this video to double check myself. Doing it right. Just wasn't hitting it hard enough. Lol. Didn't have to look for the torque spects or anything afterwards. Great job. I look forward to seeing more videos from her in the future. I am now a subscriber. Thanks for the help.

This is all common knowledge

I like that A1 vedio..also I like to watch lady mechanic..she is very very safety and carefully to her job..very good job.

I love this mechanic and all of the 1A Auto videos. They’ve saved me thousands of dollars and hours. The only thing that makes me nervous is the fact that she routinely pushes the ratchet or whatever she’s turning 𝙖𝙬𝙖𝙮 from her. The very first thing I learned in Machinist’s Mate A School in the Navy was, “𝙉𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 push a wrench!”

These A1 Auto videos are wonderful! I love her explanations (so clear!) and the videos do a great job of showing what's going on even when it's hard for me to see myself. But the best part is really this... When I watch the A1 Auto videos, I can make a good decision as to whether or not I want to attempt the repair myself. This is a great resource! Thank you A1 Auto and your great mechanic.

Love how new the bleeder screw is. Never have I loosened the bleeder except to bleed the brakes. Brand new C V joint also. Brand new upper ball joint and control arm.

I just did this job on a Mazda 5. While she did a great job on explaining this she appears to have put the bearing in backwards. The darker ring on the bearing needs to face the sensor on the inside. This will cause a speed sensor fault and a ABS light. Her ability to explain the processes is excellent.

@geecrawdad

Rafael, I think the abs sensor will interact with the reluctor ring for proper abs signal. Yes, some bearings will have a magnetic ring, in which case, it must be installed in a certain direction where the abs sensor will pick it up.

To remove the brake disc you could simply use a long M10 bolt and nut. Use the clearance hole for the brake caliper carrier to jack and force out the disk. Worked a treat on the seized disc of my Mazda3

Just putting this out there. If you don't have an impact please loose the axle nut before you even jack it.

Thanks for the great video. What were the symptoms of the bad bearing? My Mazda makes a whirring sound when turning the wheel slightly to the right while driving. It’s mostly noticeable at highway speed, but I can hear it at all speeds. When the wheel is straight or turned to the left, there’s no noise. All of the lug nuts are tight. I don’t hear any clicking noise like you would hear with a bad CV joint. Thanks

Is this generally the same way you do the wheel bring on a 98 Mazda 626? If not, do you have a video on that?

I believe the lower strut wishbone bolt should be tightened only after the weight of the vehicle is on the suspension. That way it will be in a neutral position with no internal stress when vehicle is sitting at normal ride height.

@13:50 , I love that smile of satisfaction after smashing away with the BFH! :)

When you get to 19:35, could you press the hub and half inner bearing race back into the knuckle? I have to pull my hub to replace a stud, and I'd like to just press the hub/half inner bearing race back in. it

What size socket did you use to remove hub nut

@devonrathie1696

3 жыл бұрын

If you've done that one before and you know where to hit it its ok. It's bad if it starts to get cock-eyed in the hole then you will likely damage the bore that seats the outer race of the bearing. Thats why

Is this process identical on a 2007 Mazda 3

Are the retaining screws necessary? Could hitting the rotors to remove them damage them? I just had my front wheel bearings & hub replaced at Mazda dealership. After a few days my brake pedal will vibrate when braking at speeds above 40mph. I thought I needed to replaced front brakes, but they are good. The retaining screws, and bleeder cap were missing. I went back to the dealership, and told them the missing parts. They claimed that they had not messed with rotor or brakes to replace wheel bearing or hub 🤔. So how can I prove in fact that they did lose these parts?

Can you get these parts without pressing the wheel bearing and hub? pre packaged ready to install? It's confusing as some are doing it your way and some are just installing it.

You're a badass!

Does this job apply to a 2010 Mazda 6?

For the rotor mounting screw, it is even easier if you use a JIS #3 cross point bit, which is the proper one to use as it matches the fastener. That is not actually a Phillips fastener, so a Phillips bit will not fit proper.

Should both sides be done at the same time or doesn’t it matter

Is it possible to put the new bearing back into the knuckle and the wheel hub into the bearing without a press? I'm not worried about damaging the old one getting it out without a press by beating on it a little bit, but is there a way to put in the new one without a press that won't damage the new part? If so, what's the best way to go about it?

My parts kit did not come with the nut. Only the spindle and bushing.

If I'm not mistaken, the wheel bearing was installed incorrectly--with the magnetic side of the wheel bearing facing outward, but I'm not sure why this is needed since there is an ABS ring on the axle...regardless, excellent video, thanks for sharing.

You're not supposed to use a pickle fork on these types of joints.

Is it just me? Or does that tire have a pretty substantial slice in it near the scuffed part of the wheel?

Odd but love her voice. Sounds like she’s from NY or NJ

I guess she's a sufficiently experienced mechanic . Very good jdb!! and I wonder When using a wedged tool to separate the ball joint, should the inclined plane be on the opposite site of the rubber boot? The inclined plane looks harmful for rubber materials. I'm just curious. BTW, the mechanic is so good.

Hi 1A Auto, I own a 2004 Mazda Mazda6 and it is having the symptom of a scrapping noise once per revolution at front driver side. After removing the wheel, scrapping noise still present. After resurfacing the rotor (no indication of warping by Orielly's Auto Parts), the scrapping noise is still present. I swapped driver side with front passenger side rotor to be sure it was not warped , symptom still present on driver side. I don't hear clicking noises from CV Axle on turns or accelerating. I am wondering if it could be a warped hub or wheel bearing issue. Please let me know what other checks I should perform.
