35:15 she damaged the bearing seal- start all over.

[@Nsinu8]

My favorite scene is 09:02. The steel hammer whacking axle shaft threads: Priceless.

[@SerenoOunce]

At 18:42 can see seal on new bearing is damaged. While staking the snap ring is recommended you need to be careful. That's why I always attack the groove with a dremel to make sure it's free of any rust/debris. A coat of grease after won't hurt either. And the Camry uses a tone ring on the axle for ABS, bearing is not magnetized for this vehicle.

[@DJK.I.M.-KeepnItMovn]

I used your video to change wheel bearing knuckle assembly on 2012 Toyota Highlander (front driver and passenger). I followed your video exactly & didn’t have any issues. I successfully changed the parts and the car drives great now. Thank you.

[@ChavezDIY]

As a DIYer I dread replacing the wheel bearings on my car. Good job!

[@Lasurge1982]

I will put money that this woman is three times of a better mechanic than most of the guys in this comment section talking trash about her

[@chuckschillingvideos]

What on earth? You just let the caliper dangle by the brake line?

[@ericg1129]

I was thinking the same thing

[@yournightmare9999]

Why not this is Toyota... Not other crappy overpriced brand

[@dougwitherby3291]

@@yournightmare9999 then why does it need a bearing already??

[@boostedmaniac]

Yeah exactly

[@merkel2750]

Gently letting a caliper hang on a brake line won’t hurt the line, unless they can’t handle 30ftlb of force, last I checked they handle a hundred or more pretty easily.🤷‍♂️

[@mrsmith8737]

Wow, she makes it look so easy.. Excellent tutorial; not rushed, good pace and easy to follow even for someone who isn't so handy with a socket wrench and an air gun.... Also, not a whole lot of small talk that has nothing to do with the task at hand......

[@benniemull4194]

One of the better repair videos I've seen on you tube. Thank you.

[@atxjax1]

Thanks for the video. If you are not going to replace the ball joint it can be left attached to the knuckle assembly. Just remove the 2 nuts and one bolt from the lower arm. Plenty of clearance room for the press to work with it attached.

[@SheenTeam10]

That's exactly what I thought. You didn't need to remove the lower ball joint out of the knuckle.

[@Kevin-bl6hx]

@@SheenTeam10 She did need to remove it from the knuckle because she stated she was replacing the Ball Joint. Doing this job and skipping replacing the ball joint that is fairly inexpensive ($30 to $60) is not a good idea for the do it yourselfer. Pissing in the wind to have to go back and do it later sucks.

[@alejandroalex8855]

what happens when a mechanic damages the bearing like it shows here on 18:42 ? Just wondering if the bearing would function properly after. Great instructional video

[@atxjax1]

Good catch. Thats the grease seal that is damaged a little. The bearings inside don't ride on it but none the less it is damaged.If it were my vehicle I wouldn't feel comfy with it.

[@stoptellingmewhattowrite]

I wouldn't take the chance with it... could be no issue but could mess up the cage or seals and fail prematurely. Unfortunately you might not know and they say F-it and put it on anyway.

[@igotaction]

Many mechanics would say F it and put it on. A wire brush to clean the groove makes the clip go all the way, plus the 300lbs of torque on the CV nut.

[@836dmar]

I thought she was pressing on the outer part of the bearing, no?

[@egSmith-sp9gl]

The seal of the bearing is damaged, so this bearing is not seal anymore. The life of this bearing will be a lot shorter than expected.......

She dented the new bearing shield with punch when she tried to set the snap ring in. 12 oclock bearing position at 18:41 minute.

[@topherd1011]

I have an entire kit that allows you to do this with an impact with the knuckle still on the car ... I wonder about these people sometimes.. Ps- that ring was in fine enough without the punch imho .. but if she wanted it to sit further all she had to do was clean the damn groove 🤦‍♂️

[@bienhelado204]

Love the video. The inner race in the knuckle does not come out easily like she shows. I had to put it under pressure on the press, then heat the knuckle with a MAPP torch and tap with a hammer to set up a vibration. It did pop and let go eventually, then it pressed out as shown.

[@greghedgepath1322]

very well done video I used this as my guide to replace a wheel bearing on my 2012 Camry this afternoon everything went just as shown in the video. thank you.

Damn just left the brake line hangin

[@3819144]

The way she smack the driveshaft out the hub will damage the tread !! And you don't need to use ball joint separation fork to take out the lower ball joint , you can save the ball joint just remove the 3 17mm nut !! A simply bearing job , now you need a driveshaft , lower ball joint and a hut !! WOW I guess this is an auto part store video .

[@franceuxleseuf5928]

Thanks for the video. Can you tell if it matters which side does bearing goes into the hub on Toyota Avensis 2003 T25?

AT 18:42 YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE BEARING IS DAMAGED WHILE YOU WERE SMACKING THE SNAP RING WITH HAMMER AND CHISEL JUST TO FIT THE SNAP RING. RECHECCCKKKK!

Another excellent video by an excellent instructor. Well spoken and well demonstrated.

[@leftyflipper2346]

wrong

[@sertimins]

Thank you for the video. Very Nice. You mention torque spec for many bolts except for the axle nut. You emphasize how important not to over tighten as it will rune the bearing but do not give us a torque spec. What is the manufacturing torque spec for the axle nut?

[@yournightmare9999]

Torque Spec: 217 ft-lbs / 294 Nm

[@gon-bo-gabo372]

Your my Hero.... Professional to a tee.

[@josevelasco3245]

I wouldn’t hit the axle shaft end with a hammer like that. If you are at least put the nut on the tip so you don’t destroy the starting thread...been there done that and you end up rethreading or replacing the axle.

Hi, nice video quick question. Changing front wheel bearings, you think it will cause steering wheel get out of straight? They just put one wheel bearings on my 05 Camry in big O Tires today. When I pick it up my steering wheel is down to the left if I straight it up car will go to the right. Can you let me know pls thanks. Before the work there's an order to check for an allingement. I don't think they checked the allingement..When pick it up car they said no need an allingement. I return the car. They said they don't touch the tie rod only remove and put it back which is correct I know that but, if they didn't touch tie rod why my steering wheel not straight? thanks for your feedback🙂

I've done this with a heavy hammer using essentially the same setup as the hydraulic press. As long as you're applying forces the same way as the press, it doesn't matter if it's impact or steady pressure that's making things move.

Great job, very well done. Your video says you used a 30mm Toyota spindle nut socket which is correct but in your list of tools used you have a 32MM spindle socket listed. I'm sure some have ordered the 32mm spindle socket only to be foiled mid job.😉 Also prior to removing the axle nut, the same way you bent the little notch in the nut when you completed installing the new axle nut, you should have un bent the notch on the old spindle nut. It would have come off easier with the air gun and avoids messing up the threads on the axle shaft .
