COMPLETE DIY - VOLVO FRONT WHEEL BEARING REPLACEMENT

[@ryanplaistek9501]

Thank you for the details such as the anti-seize and blue thread lock type! Especially the torque secs for the bolts on the wheel bearing! It is very helpful and I am glad that you as a mechanic are intrigued to help, to give such detail.

[@82JLS]

Cheers dude. My bearings have just gone. Very good video, could watch all day 👍

[@PistonShack]

Glad it helped John! Thanks for your feedback. Cheers brother!

@@PistonShack way gas mix with oil on my Volvo S60 2008.is motor going or what can I do to fix it.

[@HereXEG]

No need to remove the dust shield or the ball joint. You can easily get to the bolts on the back just by punching the axle out about halfway. One thing you didn’t remove that you should and that’s the abs sensor. If you catch these bearings before they get too bad then this job can be done without an all wheel alinement. Reminder to replace the bearing seals as well and lube them up before placing them back in.

You hit that hub and it popped off for you. I've been hitting on mine harder and harder and I have not been able to get it loose! Yet. But thanks for the proceedure you showed! I got my bolts off without separating the control or tie rod though. It wasn't easy getting the 17 mm socket on the bolts but by pushing the axle inward and turning the wheel for the front and rear access the socket just fit. But the other hassle was the leverage with hand tools cause this way impact tools won't fit. But slowly the four bolts came out finally. But now the hub just will not budge. What is the trick. Do I need a puller?

[@HereXEG]

Put your wheel studs back in and press it out using a bolt that is smaller than the wheel bolt against the hub bearing seat. Reminder if you beat it out to move your hitting angles. Sometimes a small amount of heat will help pop them out. But honestly, if you just put the studs back in and press them off it’s easier.

[@jonatangustafsson8290]

Great video! But do not ever use compressed air to remove dust and rust from the brake system :) use brakeclean and a rug :D

[@PistonShack]

Thanks for your feedback Jonathan! I probable didn't have one that time)

[@LSU1212]

I had held my breath as long as I could..

[@FitnessSheriff]

How did you get the lower control arm bolt to go back into the cradle at the very end? - after you rachet strapped the arm down. No matter what I do I can't get enough distance for bolt to go back in. I tried to jack up the entire wheel assembly to compress shock spring, but it just starts lifting car!

not with that annoying ass music in the background. WAY TOO LOUD!!

[@mbs8328]

When will we need to change this bearings? For ex. How much kilometers rolled this bearing ( you said that 10 years but how much kilometers) can you answered it?

[@PistonShack]

I replaced original Volvo bearing on my vehicle at 250K km when it started to wore out. Seems like they last quite long time. Thanks for watching! Cheers.

awesome video! Thank you for sharing.

That's great, Lei! I'm so glad it helped you out) Thanks for watching and subscribing. Happy Holidays to you and your family.

[@Falco45able]

Don’t hit the end of the drive shaft with something steel as shown in the vid ,you can damage the spline on the end and it then won’t go back in😉

[@PistonShack]

Thanks Falco!

[@francometamorfosis3686]

hey great video man! do i need t reset after replacement?

[@PistonShack]

Hi Franco, Thanks for watching) Well after you replaced wheel bearing you have to do wheel an alignment to prevent uneven tire wear.

[@mcg6762]

You are using the torque wrench wrong. When it clicks you shouldn't continue torquing the nuts.

Thanks for your feedback.

[@reallyhappenings5597]

Grease to the outside of a sealed bearing? Dude, on the splines!

[@PistonShack]

Yeah, I will agree with you, it was not necessary. Applied a bit of grease to prevent corrosion on the connecting mental part.

"Prime Choice"..."very quality products"...are you kidding..??a respected manufacturer has a name not that stupid chinesse name...thats a cheap part there...;)that will need changing soon...

[@stevemccooleq]

I agree. He made a very good video. But he should have spent a little more money and got a quality brand like Timkin or FAG, not that Amazon Chinese off brand.

[@HereXEG]

With 250,000 already on his 2001 he’ll get at least 150,000 more on the bearing. Needless to say tho, he didn’t use the bearing seal that goes between the bearing and the axle. That’s what will get him in the end. Not to mention that a front end is like a chain. His bearing went out so the next will be that ball joint, then the axle and then the tie rods. I rebuilt the entire front of mine at 210,000 so I wouldn’t need to start replacing parts one after another as the weakest links break down.
