Rernault 5 GT Turbo. Front wheel bearing

The Renault 5 GT TURBO got wheel alignment issues. But before getting that sorted I need to fix a broken wheel bearing and a broken steering rod.
Today its the bearing!

Really handy those press machines.

And I got it rather cheap some years ago.... Game changer.

@@SeasideGarage Yes it's a great piece of kit.

[@jeroenalphen]

Thank you! Thanks to this video a managed to replace my bearing

[@SeasideGarage]

Great to hear!

[@LOTPOR0402]

Same as the one i had about 25 years ago .Perl white with the same stripe yellow fogs. Worth silly money now

[@SeasideGarage]

Nice!

I went to school with a girl whose family had a 5 sat on their driveway for years (this was late 90s to 2001), on google streetview, it was still there as of 2009 when they took their imagery of the place, the thing never moved an inch... :P

Godt tips med et håndklæde eller noget når man presser 👍

Great video of the Renault 5 .I think I would be inclined to put a blanket around the hub to when pressing the bearing out. i love your videos. watching from bonnie Scotland.

Thanks Neila!

Much easyer way to remove the inner race is to cut across it diagonal then hitting the grove with a chisel an it will split alowing u to slide it off

[@SeasideGarage]

Thanks!!

[@steverandall5814]

Wouldn't a "flame wrench" expand the bearing race enough to allow a chisel or screwdriver to get behind the race to pry it off?

[@danglee1786]

@@steverandall5814 iv also seen that a guy puts hub a pole an spins it while heating the race which causes it too fall off due to it expanding Not having an oxy acetylene I just use the chisel method

[@classicroute8034]

@@MrKristerhallin Tak! :) Men det er nok et godt værktøj at få i kassen en dag... :)

[@Phiyedough]

Looks like you must have had all that apart before, I was expecting all the bolts and nuts to be rusted solid!

[@SeasideGarage]

I changed coils on this one a year back so yes. :)

[@Phiyedough]

@@SeasideGarage Best to call them springs or coil springs. If you talk about coils people tend to think of ignition coils.

[@Musclecar123]

What is the name of the lift you have?

[@SeasideGarage]

Ravigioli :)
