Honda Civic Front Wheel Bearing Replacement (On Car without press)

[@abyssalsoul6216]

It is important to note that the size of the adapters matters. When installing the bearing the adapter must fit around the outer edge of the bearing. When installing the hub the adapter on the inner side must fit only the inner race, or else you could damage the bearing. I often see where the bearing is put in the freezer over night. If doing so it is best to lubricate the outer surface of the bearing first. Supposedly this helps with the bearing being pressed in. If the hub removal tool is not available a 5 lb slide hammer should also work. Rent thiese from Autozone , Advanced auto. Great video!

I'm glad you brought that up! Very important points for anyone doing this at home!!!!

[@rickhernandez4269]

Bro. I’m 61 years old and you totally made me jealous. It takes tons of talent to do what you do.

[@CjJones-s2z]

Wow you must have no talent then

[@LunaWolf13.]

The only video that actually explained it the way I needed it to be explained. I'm about to do mine and I'm glad I found this.

[@jamcarsrepair5320]

I just bought that tool, will be replacing two wheel bearings tomorrow, I will follow your instructions.

[@ALLINONEFILM]

Best video ever seen, with step by step and explanations . I own a 2017 and i was looking for a video like this Thank you 🙏

[@Alexa_Spencer]

Thank you!

[@BigRedtheGinger]

I gotta do this on my 2020 Civic, but I think I'm going to invest in this tool rather than clocking out early and doing it at my job. The puller/installer kit is pretty bad ass!

[@nathanjohnson3790]

Outstanding Job Sir!!! I'm a much older guy then yourself. And it does my heart good to known young persons such as yourself are caring on the "Badge Of Honor" in this particular field. Great Work!! Please continue to keep it up!!! P.S. I too had decided to order one of those" OEM 27213 Master Kits". I have a few Hondas that need some Love shown to them in this area! Thanks Again!!!

[@Alexa_Spencer]

Thank you kindly. Glad it helped and wish the best on your vehicles. Hopefully they are not as rusty as they are here in Michigan.

These kids ain't stupid nowadays I don't know why everyone gives them a bad rap. It's easy for them to get information we had to go to libraries and everything else. Plus when they stay inside and play their games they don't get in trouble. We were thrown outside and we'd go build fires and get chased by the cops. These kids ain't bad nowadays mine will get in trouble at all and they work on cars

[@willmartruckingllc1586]

This kid is amazing. Thank you so much. You're the best! Keep it up!

[@Alexa_Spencer]

Thanks soooo much!!!

[@MyzteryMedia]

Very informative and thanks to you I was able to go do mine with ease. Thank so much!!

[@Jimmy-Legs]

Excellent mechanic skills. Even better videography and explanation of work. Kudos

[@Alexa_Spencer]

Thank you very much!

[@markcollard9326]

Nice, subbed for the informative video and tool recommendation.

[@fallout7619]

Thank you for the video, helped me changed my bearing on my honda.

[@Alexa_Spencer]

Glad it helped!

[@Coco-o3q8o]

No need to loosen the nuckle, or the tie rod end. Or the axle.. No need to use that tool, there's a much better way.

[@bernicerosesanchez8471]

How much would that labor cost me to have done if I supply the new parts

[@jaironbarrios3561]

good video, well explained, can you help me with the link of the tool I am using?

[@Billy-zo9bk]

Awesome video thank you for uploading it. Everything seems doable for me up until the 9:14 mark, I dont know what piece you removed when you you have the hub on a bench vise. What can we use if we don't have that air chisel? Would I have to buy a new hub from OEM? 44600-TR0-A00 seems to be the part number

[@hokahay93]

Same all of this make sense to me except for that part. What part is that exactly and do we have to replace it?

[@SCOOBYDOOBY664]

That part is the inner race of the bearing you are replacing... it sticks on the hub and has to be destroyed to remove..but no worries .. it is part of the new bearing

[@MylesFischer-pd1gw]

What is that tool called and will it work my 1998 honda civic lx bearings

[@italojose9962]

Nice video. Im trying to remove my bearing using that tool but it does not come out. Any ideas? Im using an impact driver with 400Nm of torque.

[@Alexa_Spencer]

When removing, I normally will strike the casting holding the bearing and it will sometimes come out. Others since I’m in Michigan and in the rusty rust belt, it will take a large amount of force using a shop press to remove. Those are the two methods that I tend to use.

[@purpledonatello]

Very good video. I have otc hub grappler looks like similar style. Theres a manual book but doesnt have this year of car listed. Is it require to remove tie rod end though?

[@Alexa_Spencer]

I tend to just pop them off so I can freely rotate the knuckle and easily remove the half shaft. I was debating removing the lower ball joint and pulling the unit out that way, but given they were not cam bolts and it’s not a ford it didn’t really matter the route needed to be taken. It was easier for me to film the process using this method. How do you like your OTC, OEM, NAPA, etc system, I believe they supply other companies as well.

[@eddiesalinas7562]

You did it great bro

[@Alexa_Spencer]

I appreciate it

[@rollin19]

Hey good job,what make and model tool did you use to get the bearing out?

[@Alexa_Spencer]

The tool that I used was my Oem Tools 27213 Master Wheel Hub, Bearing Remover and Installer Kit.

[@genechavez3253]

Wonderful video!!

[@MikeGroff-j8f]

Maybe let the weekenders know what the magnetic strip is for. Not all bearings have it on both sides.

[@carrotcake602]

In case anyone reads this later, if your bushing has only one side that has a magnetic strip, the magnetic side must face TOWARDS the ABS sensor (the one that gets removed at 5:08). So in this particular video, the magnetic strip should face INTO the car, since that's where the sensor is located.

[@jonh2408]

Does removing the 2 bolts off the strut affect the wheel alignment... ive seen othe videos that says it does?

[@Billy-zo9bk]

No, as far as I know, the 2013/2014 civic do not have camber adjustment bolts on the struts. Mark them just to be sure, then when you take them out if they look straight all the way around the you know they don't.

[@Aitchp]

Can you link me the tools ?

[@JackO-d9t]

Nice pink gloves

[@Alexa_Spencer]

I love them, they are vibrant pink and visually pleasing when working.

[@lambjir]

That's an awesome video

[@cjl_-kr7yk]

i bought the rockauto wheel bearing with the hub assembly already put together....it still makes the humming noise..what am i doing wrong?

[@jamcarsrepair5320]

Did you replace only one side ? Because the noise could be from the other side

[@cjl_-kr7yk]

@@jamcarsrepair5320 mavis let me listen with the special steascope...its deff the front left side

[@roberttaskerjr]

The rock auto hub and bearing is junk. Replaced mine twice and it wore out in a month. I'm here now because I'm replacing just the bearing with timken bearings.

[@Billy-zo9bk]

​​@@roberttaskerjrwhat brand, dorman? I wish Honda or another manufacturer produced the whole set because even for $100-$200 the labor time saved is well worth it.

[@roberttaskerjr]

@@Billy-zo9bk yes the dorman

[@matthewmedina3236]

not sure why you didnt use an oz of antisieze on any of that, not judging, just cringing over here a little and feel sorry for the next poor soul that has to take that apart next time ( OR STRUGGLE TO REMOVE EVERYTHING NEXT TIME)

[@mattgaeta1287]

I don’t like how he cut that cutter pin for the rod you gotta bend that over the nut

[@Yaboii336]

That's still a press no press would be a hammer and socket

[@totalnoobfishing1753]

I'll take a new Dorman knuckle with pressed in Hub and new bearings all day long over this mishegoss
