06 - 13 Chevy Impala Front Wheel Bearing/Hub Assembly Replacement.

How to video on how to change your driver or passenger side front wheel hub assembly on your 06 -13 Chevrolet Impala.

[@MrBikedrummer]

Thanks for stating the sizes of sockets needed and for not hiding the difficult parts. Great video for hands-on people!

[@FUBARguy107]

Just started your video and I am already impressed. No long intro song. No triple-layered explanation. The first words out of your mouth are "let's start here with X sized socket". I am genuinely relieved already. Edit: Wow what a son-of-a-Gunderson this task appears to be. I'm relieved by your video but not excited 😂

[@marcyfruhling5125]

Thank you very much! I liked your video. It was direct and to the point without a lot of talking to make the video longer. I will be watching your videos in the future. I’m a lady mechanic that just want the information not entertainment 👍🏻

[@joalbade908]

As a side note, I saw you're using pb blaster to break loose the hub assembly from the spline. *IF* you have the time, spray the pb a day ahead, and let it work. There is a video comparing penetrating fluids, and pb comes out on top. I've been breaking loose rusted bolts/nuts for 40+ years, and pb is the best commercially sold. THE BEST is the old mechanics trick which I learned in the 70's from one of the most knowledgeable mechanics EVER(foreign/domestic>>props Harold)1/2 acetone, 1/2 tranny fluid. Got to keep it in a glass jar(shake when needed) because it will dissolve anything rubber in an old oil can squirt.

[@homie-da-clown7520]

I heard even better is if you heat the pb blaster with a torch after you soak the part. Gets anything to separate. I'm probably late to the party on that one. I'm just a guy who works on his own family's cars. A backyard mechanic maybe. Where does the old wd40 rank on that list? I still use it for many different things myself. Not a stuck wheel hub. But...

[@britneyfuqua2860]

Best videos I have found I am a female so a lot of folks wAnna go into to much detail . A lot of help this was and I love how you speed thru and don’t try to explain how to use a ratchet first. Lol Appreciate your videos I have completed several jobs

[@huckster66]

I changed both sides last week. I did clean out where new bearing fits into. I put a little “anti seize” on that area and axel shaft. Lock tight the three bearing screws.

[@skyisthalimit83]

Awesome video. You explained everything. This is how all videos showing how to do something should be made. Thank you and you've definitely earned my subscription. 💯💪🏾

[@Rod01-s2k]

Great video. I have an 06 Impala LS. You made the process simple and straight forward, plus you saved me as well as others the cost of this repair.

[@thomasheisler]

Thanks for the video, doesn't look as hard as I imagined ❤❤❤

[@jacobverdugo2793]

Props to you bro I’m about to get to wrenchin on my 11 impala

[@21FEEZY]

Great video! this one's going to help alot of people for a long time. And the step by step instructions on this video are on another level. Awesome

[@ronaldgreen5292]

Great video!💯👍 Very straightforward, and simple! Thanks. I have the same car.

[@steverick3060]

To get the hub off usually I have smacked down hard on the hub plate with a bfh and it will come out

[@douglasgreen437]

Great video, clear & concise..👍

[@user-ul2bm6ov4h]

Thanks dude Vote Blue

[@kevdun]

Very helpful. Thank you!

[@sunlite9759]

Excellent demo.

[@andrewsmith941]

Would the gear puller work without the last 3 bolts being removed? Also if you would have taken a screw driver and put pressure against the brake pads it would have pushed the plunger in and the caliber would have come off easier.

[@LG_CAT_SUS]

Thanks so much!

[@mattevans8517]

I'll be using this soon. Both my fronts need replaced. Except I have a lifetime Michigan and Illinois car so I guess mine will suck a bit more to break free lol

[@joalbade908]

Just looked it up..Walgreens sells nail polish remover(100% acetone in a pump jar.) Buy that, then refill w/mix. And anti-seize on the new assembly. Sorry btw, great video!!

[@armondcooper1548]

You spray acetone on it to break the hub off?

[@chuckvizzle930]

BFH big fuggin hammer lmao nice

[@robertluechtefeld5017]

What is the total elapsed time to expect if you have all the correct tools including sockets available?

[@jesseparent7558]

Mine was 13mm idk where you were using 15 mm caliper bolts just saying the wheel hub was 3/4 socket and the t30 was still t30 but great video regardless

[@johnclark3431]

Different sub models use different hardware.

[@MacdoNaldi67]

Only downside to putting hub nut on and smacking in is the transmission takes the brunt of all of those sledge swings. Prob better to remove tie rod, sway bar link, and strut and then smack the old hub out from inside the wheel well instead of smacking the cv directly into the transmission

[@sunset9729]

Awesome! Thanks man. ✌🤜🤛🏻👍

[@davidh7300]

Place tried to charge me 1100 for both sides. I bought premium parts and the sockets I needed for $300. Free tools plus $800 to do it myself.

[@fuhkbiden]

Where are you jacking it up from the front?

[@user-ul2bm6ov4h]

👍👍👍👍

[@randywilliams6248]

When the abs light comes on, does the code tell you which one it is?

[@ariesaries2597]

Will the new wheel hub fo in easy or will I have to hammer it In..you looked like it just went ride in?

[@8307c4]

Hmmmm ok, I'm going to go buy a bigger hammer for mine, couldn't get that axle shaft to come out, thanks for the video.

[@jcb570]

Good video !! safety first.. it was very dangerous to put you body under the car. even with jack stands anything can happen. it would have been just as easy to have stayed on the stool. i know you did it for the video but there's a lot of DA that want use a jack stand.I am not trolling the video!! you did a good and clean job!!

[@stockstnt8]

Axle nut socket size????

[@SuperCyril2]

Put a little antiseize on that axle shaft spline gear.

[@elviejeancase1269]

Is it the best to change both wheel barins instead of judt one wheel

[@realtree576]

Yeah if it's in your budget.

[@shannaconstable3225]

What tools do I need

[@timmberthy]

what did you torque the axle nut to?

[@Clark3218]

I Torqued Mine to 100 Ft Lbs Once and the Other time I Just Gunned It

[@Drayelam21]

What do you do if that t30 bolt broke...

[@trysomehonesty9643]

You ever figure this out? I'm bout to do it on an 09.

[@PKpieMan]

use a drill to break off the screw heads. the rotor screws are not a required part, they are just for convenience to hold the rotor in place while you work. you can use a lug nut to hold it in place in the future- when all five lugs are holding the wheel on, your rotor won’t have problems if it’s missing the retention screws.

[@stevecreasy4000]

Bearing grease??

[@Big_John_C]

Sealed bearings, pregreased.

[@nobonespurs]

good but need more words

[@nobonespurs]

what brand? moog, detroit auto get bad reviews

[@dennissecor8092]

Awesome video, great job thank you!

[@freakenstein1991]

Wow.. didn't leave the jack under the car in case it fell.. didn't put the tire under the car in case it fell.. no antiseize on the axel.. and most importantly, he didn't even torque the axel nut to spec. Have fun replacing it in a couple months.

[@Big_John_C]

Wow a real live KZbin armchair expert.. always one in every video

[@jacobverdugo2793]

Props to you bro I’m about to get to wrenchin on my 11 impala
