You are a good teacher of trade lost years ago bless you Sir.

@chrishastedt9597 Thank you!

Great video! The bearing doesn't come off the hub assembly quite as easy as shown. Usually takes a great amount of pounding and prying, but we get how to complete the project. Thank you

Depends on the climate you live in.

[@petermartinez5573]

Great video. You explained everything systematically and thoroughly. Good job my man. The only other thing you might have discussed is removing the protective coating from the new rotor. Much respect.

[@jermelljackson1962]

This was a great video. You explained things very clear. My only question is that why have you not removed the tire rod bolt? I Saw a similar video where they removed the tires rod bolt.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Jermell Jackson thank you, I didn't remove the tie rod because I had enough room to remove the bearing... and the steering wheel was unlocked, so I could turn the steering knuckle without any problems...

[@steveburns9684]

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Will this procedure fix the traction control/abs light indicator showing on my dash??? I can save lots of money doing this myself... Thanks for the video 👍

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Mr burgess if your problem is the abs sensor or the wheel bearing this procedure will help you fix it!!

[@jl-heatfan4life717]

Ur explanation is on point 👍 but dont u disconnect the ABS Line Harness? Had a malibu with Hub Assembly that had ABS Line connector attach to it n it pinches the wire so i guess newer models is not attached ABS Line with Hub Assembly huh? Thank u bro

[@elijahyousif5952]

Hello, can you please tell me where did you get the front wheel bearing hub assembly from ?

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@elijahyousif5952 I got it from my local parts store!

[@Juclo90]

It’s necessary to putting back the rotors splash plate? Because the new rotors I bought is bigger than the factory I find in the car. It doesn’t fit in the splash plate. If I put it back without splash plate it’s fit but, but with splash plate it doesn’t. So I have to keep the splash or it doesn’t matter to keep it or not? Can you answer to me please. Thanks you

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Clauzel Etoyla you need the splash plate, you should get the right rotor!

You didn't let us know what size sockets or torx wrench you used

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

Once I replace the Oxygen Sensor (upper), the engine began to die.

[@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair]

@PaPabearj1 did you install an aftermarket sensor in it?
