Nice video I am about to change the wheel bearings on my 03 Suzuki xl7. It looks easy enough I just have to check the axle on mine to see if I need that socket as well.

Where did you get that large 4 stud socket to get the ring nut off the front of the bearing hub? That is my missing link right there
@littlemiamijeff26 күн бұрын
And what diameter? Looks like there are 2 different sizes of 4 stud

Where did you purchase the hub assembly and wheel bearing?

How has this job turned out? I see some discussion online about the preload on the torque. You have a terrific socket there so can you tell me please about where you bought it?

Been a couple years since I did this never had a problem. I got the socket on Amazon. It's too bad a specialty tool is required for the job.

@@smilingimpact2580 Thanks.. Yes I bought the socket and I have spent well too many hours under my vehicle.. :0
You don’t set the preload with the nut? I’ve never seen someone torque the nut down and never spin it to check before putting the lock plate on. Is it just a torque spec since it isn’t a tapered bearing?

You installed an abs kit? But the ones you replaced where not abs right?

These should be torqued to 155.5 ft lbs, so he will be doing it again real soon

I can't get mine to fall off like that. There's what looks like a slot for a flat head screw driver but when I put one in there it doesn't help pull the wheel hub off. Did you just get lucky when it came off like that?
@SuperTooShea4 жыл бұрын
Yes, he did get lucky. I had to use a puller and a rotary hammer to remove the race that was stuck on there still!

@@fizzley19 Once you remove the hub then you can press the bearing out. But it's way easier to just replace the hub.
