Ford E150 front rotor, brake pad and wheel bearing replacement

[@MrSethMac]

Very similar for the 80's econoline, which is basically impossible to find any information on, thanks for the vid.

Great video, of course I’ll add a lil something. After you put the pads back on (15:43) and typically before you put the caliper back on the break pad hardware fully clips around the top and bottom fingers of the pads. This probably doesn’t matter much in most instances but in certain instances the hardware, can protrude out just enough to scrape the inner portion of some wheels. Especially if the you have hidden balancing weights. This comment is just to help the few that run into an obnoxious squeal coming from the wheel following the brake job. Again your video is great.

Appreciate the tip!

Excellent tutorial video. Very well explained step by step. Will be doing this quite soon. No different than my 98 Silverado that I thought may be on the 2002 Ford E150 Van.Thanks for all the information

Thank you! Best of luck! Your welcome!

Man I could have used this 6 months ago. Great video.

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Thanks man!

You just saved me a lot of money. Thanks for the detailed video. Will be implementing your strategy.

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Your welcome! Glad it could save you some money.

FYI, according to the Haynes manual for setting the bearings... its 1) rotate assembly ccw while tightening spindle nut to 17-25 FOOT pounds (not inch pounds) 2) back off spindle nut 1/2 turn 3) tighten nut to 22-25 INCH pounds. I'm not sure you're using enough force to seat the bearings in step 1.

[@HonzoSample]

@@derfiemcgoo9673 it doesn't appear so. The Haynes manual I have is for 92-14 E-150 thru E-350. I'd think the 250 or 350 might have a different/beefier hub but this manual doesn't seem to have different figures for those models.

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Thank you for answering the question.

[@dv7548]

I saw a video where the grease was placed on hand get the bearing from the base of and "push back into to the grease" that will pack grease into the bearing.

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

It’s not rocket science any way you can jam grease in to the bearings is sufficient.

Thanks a ton for this video. Helps a bunch!

Great job I've done many but before I do one I like to do a refresher ..you covered every...thing. but you did not mention trouble shooting ..bad brake pads bad rotor bad bearing.... Is the hub loss and how much play should you have ...with the job buttoned up and before ..should thectirecsoin freely etc...Thanks

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

This was a tutorial on replacement not troubleshooting brake or wheel bearing issues. If you do as I say you won’t have to troubleshoot anything.

[@slydogracing]

Thanks for the video but definitely watch one on how to clean and pack a wheel bearing 😂

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Been fine ever since. Funny your an expert yet your watching a video on how to do this. Haha 😉

[@davidbelyea7031]

I’m a little curious why you replaced the rotor and pads in the first place, but then re-used the wheel bearings, seal and even the 5 cent cotter pin…..

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Because the pads and rotors were worn. The wheel bearings are serviceable if nothing wrong with seals and even the 5 cent cotter pin the reuse and regrease bearings. Easy deal don’t overthink things. If your more comfortable spending more money than rightfully do it. Thanks for watching!

[@davidkay4174]

put a large dab of grease on the center of your palm then roll the bearing on the edge of the grease on your palm slowly rotate the roller bearing

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

And the way I did it works as well also lol it’s not rocket science like all you old boys act like. You probably think a new car is a space ship. Lol

[@davidkay4174]

@@f.s.detailgarage7869 pack one your way then pack one my way weigh them , also time each

[@johngalt97]

Great video, but seems a good opportunity to replace the spindle seal, since its a wear item?

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Ya you can mine was still reusable so I didn’t but if it makes you feel more comfortable then certainly do it. Thanks for watching!

[@darkslider802]

Thanks!

[@bbrianh142]

Nice Video. You forgot to drive the grease seal into the rotor though.

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

You don’t need force the seal in place if it’s in good shape also when putting everything together it will snug the seal further in place. Thanks for watching! Please subscribe!

Who taught u how to pack bearings?

@@Mechanicsonly you act as if packing a bearing is rocket science 🤡

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

@@Mechanicsonly also who’s watching who’s video 😉🤣

[@Mechanicsonly]

@@f.s.detailgarage7869 not rocket science is right and u took like a 2 yr old doing it like that. I just skipped to the part to find the torque spec.

[@EstebanViquez]

Does anyone have OEM part number for those 2 front wheel bearing ? Econoline 2003 Thanks

[@lawrencepatterson72]

My rear bearing got destroyed, any tips on what I did wrong?

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Without knowing what you did my assumption would be over torquing or under torquing.

[@Cesk3boy]

Can you move the axle nut only with hand? :0 why is not tighten?

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

That is the bearing can still function properly. If you crank the nut down you will smash the bearing rendering it useless and frozen in place.

[@nicholasbroomell7859]

Same for front wheels?

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

This is for the front wheels.

[@rev.lazarus906]

What state are you a mechanic in?

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

California

[@jamesdaly5966]

How in the sweet fuck do you remove the rotor from the hub

[@brianmontgomery9714]

the hub is riveted on to the rotor, unlike newer types. bearings and seal are replaceable. if the rotor is beyond it's useful life or is warped, buy a new one, races are normally pre-installed in it.

[@jefffinfrock2267]

Guy has no clue on how to pack a wheel bearing! SMH😇😇🙏❤️

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Says the guy watching a video on how to pack a wheel bearing. Lol. Still working fine 8k miles later.

[@Indigenousadventure]

You chose to be here so you have no right to talk shit. Where's your video on how to pack a bearing?

[@Indigenousadventure]

On second note, anyone that has the ability to wrench on things and go by feel is who you want working on anything. The owners manual doesn't teach this.

[@f.s.detailgarage7869]

Well said, thank you! 🙏👊
