REAR HUB BEARING REPLACEMENT - C4 CORVETTE

[@lilwu09]

Thanks, I'm gonna try this once my bearing comes in this weekend. I hear grinding and popping from rear driverside wheel when rotating. Appreciate you! Love the raw vid, makes me feel like a normal human being is doing it. Now I feel capable!

[@aDIYCarGuy]

you're welcome. this turned out to be one of the easier things to do on the car (for me). thanks for watching!

Very straight forward and informative video. Thank you for keeping it about the task and not including unnecessary verbiage (i.e. you know what I'm saying......like like like..). I appreciate you taking the time to document this task. Thank you!

[@aDIYCarGuy]

no problem, thanks for watching!

[@BlackPearlMusicVideos]

Very informative. I need to do this to my "84. But one tip though, Keep the camera on a tripod so you can have both hands free and the camera won't be jumping around so much! Thanks for the video!

[@tombiernacki9466]

Hi, Thank You for the video, very helpful. What brand bearing did you use? The reason I ask is I purchased a National/Moog bearing and it doesn't have a separate grease seal like yours did and nowhere I checked lists a separate grease seal available. Mine did however come with a very thin large o ring. Thanks again for the C4 info.

[@aDIYCarGuy]

Hi it was made by Power Train Components. Does Moog have the grease seal on it already? I can't find a grease seal listed separately either. It might be a brand specific phenomenon, but I don't really know for sure. Thanks for watching!

That concave washer that came out when old brg.was pulled , is called an anti click washer . Don't know how , but it stops the clicking sound heard in reverse and from reverse to drive , also dish in washer looks out when installing

[@aDIYCarGuy]

interesting, thanks!

[@ralphconradt1434]

Thanks so much. Nowhere on Corvette forum does it tell you how to to remove hub without taking half the suspension apart. I got as far as taking off caliper, rotor, axle nut and when I searched there it was so complicated I was going to put it all back together. Thanks buddy!

[@aDIYCarGuy]

Welcome! Glad it helped!

[@triplecranks9540]

Not 18 mm bolt or 36 mm nut. It is an 18 mm socket and 36 mm socket FYI. Know what you meant though 😀. Thanks for taking the time to make this.

[@iplaypearldrums7935]

What was car's mileage @ the time?? Good job.....

[@aDIYCarGuy]

Around 85,000 miles. Thanks

[@DannyRossa]

Thanks for making this video!

[@woodywoody51]

Thanks for taking the time to do this !! Made me realise that I didn't have to panic ! Thanks

[@aDIYCarGuy]

no problem!

[@ScreamingEagleFTW]

he said the axel nut gets torqued to 164 ft lbs!!

[@accutron-man3006]

Great video on your part but at 7:36 I don't like what I see printed on the side of the aftermarket bearing assembly. I'd rather get one that's OEM GM or a well known high-performance manufacturer replacement part.

[@Jockebanan99]

Just banging with a hammer without any penetrating oil, hard to watch, just crazy.

[@aDIYCarGuy]

How smug, as if penetrating oil softens the blows of a hammer lmao. You haven't seen much if that's hard to watch.

[@Jockebanan99]

No but it makes nuts, screws and axles move freely. The axle in the hub should also be lubed before put together, like all other screws and bolts. Anti seize, heared about it??

[@jasonc470]

​@@Jockebanan99ever heard of keeping your mouth shut?? I don't think the video said what's your opinion....not once did I hear him ask.. So stfu prick

[@bloodmanic32]

what year was that corvette you kind of mumbled it? what bearing manufacturer do you prefer to use? thanks

[@aDIYCarGuy]

it is a 1992. i use whatever brand name is the cheapest, but if you're a purist you'd want to use delco

[@evils1z28]

Thanks for the vidz , i will post them on corvetteforum

[@aDIYCarGuy]

thanks i appreciate it!

[@theaccountant5133]

I have never seen anyone take apart something and put it back together without lubrication. This is hard to watch. Like fucking without grease! Got to be tough!

[@aDIYCarGuy]

You didn't see the tub of grease at 6:17 and the grease smeared on everything at 7:15?

[@brandencrouse4563]

Lmao 🤣

[@larrygreen8912]

Blair Witch meets Corvette. Invest in a tripod .

[@aDIYCarGuy]

At the time I was working towards that. I'm beyond that now.

[@jasonc470]

Or appreciate he put this up for free... Shut the hell up. You watched because obviously you are in this repair like all of us. I appreciate you posting this 👍 awesome job

[@herrerakennyl]

[@herrerakennyl]

[@aDIYCarGuy]

[@derekenlow7607]

Holy shiiiat. I didn't know it was that easy...

[@tomstrickland6002]

Well, it didn't fix my clicking sound when I start up.

[@aDIYCarGuy]

might be universal joint on the drive axles? brakes?
