Jeep Compass / Patriot - Rear Bearing Replacement

[@overboostn]

Every time I watch you work on the underside of a car, I realize how much I love working on cars down south.

[@rbarr1200]

Man, that slow motion part was LEGIT. Thanks Hannah for helping your dad help us.

[@777warhero]

+Ricardo Barron Are they related? I thought Hannah was a summer shop assistant of sorts.

[@SouthMainAuto]

+argonian bilbo Hannah is just summer help and after school. No relation.

[@rbarr1200]

+argonian bilbo whoops my bad

[@TrimJazz]

the dramatic endurance of the "hammering" ..... brought a tear to my eye.... oscar worthiness!

[@SouthMainAuto]

+Trim Jazz Haha did you replay it/

[@pedrolriveranegron5178]

I notice that the rusty conditions down there are the main issue to all comon car problems!!! That jeep is not so old and it's all full of rust on the bottom and the body.Great job and video! Erick, I'm always in tune watching your videos and learning new techniques!ALWAYS THANKFUL THAT SHARE YOUR KNOWLEDGE!

[@wadehicks9270]

There's one thang about it when folks bring you something to fix you make sure that you do a super job on whatever your doing. Your one of the best I've seen. Great work Sir...👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Fetching tools, video-saving Jump Pack idea for powering the camera... *Hana Rocks!*

[@63256325N]

That harbor fright battery impact is a pretty versatile tool, takes off bolts and nuts an doubles for a hammer....love it! Nicely done repair. Not too bad with the rust battle. Thanks for the video.

[@wheelerdealer7098]

this guys that good i give thumbs up before i watch the uploads now.

[@PonFORDS]

Same here! He can load a vid of paint drying and he gets a thumbs up from me!

[@tomoakhill8825]

@@PonFORDS Eric would make a dozen humorous comments about the paint, about drying, about cheep paint from China, about how this brand of paint is good but that other brand peels off in a week, and we would all LOL.

[@whoistylerkiz3687]

Huge respect for this. Maybe it's because I'm in New England but my Jeep ended up looking something like this. Most videos are full of rust free cars and everything comes apart like it's supposed to. I've learned better that what should be a 20 min job can be multiple hours of torching, cutting, kicking and hammering. Oh and removing bolts that the impact wrench snaps off....

[@gzoie]

another great fix Dr. O !!!! congrats on 30,000+ subs and 5,000,000+ views !!!! best mechanic on yt !!!

[@laohantun7404]

Lots and Lots of patience you have buddy, I'm doing similar stuff, w.o patience our job won't take us any where.

[@andrewk778]

I enjoy all your videos. You have a nice presentation style. As a DIY'er, I know the workings of just my cars. It is nice to see repairs of other makes and models.

[@justincase1575]

I’ve had three of these. They are 17mm and yeah can be a cluster to get hub off. I bought a grade 8 bolt longer to beat them off. Fun fun fun!

[@wrnhokie]

LOVE the 60 frames per second! It seems so real.

[@GarthGoldberg]

Really good video, even without the sledge or flame wrench. The air hammer did come into play.

[@SouthMainAuto]

+Garth Goldberg I know it went way to easy

[@GarthGoldberg]

Ivan has got a tone ring video today also. Are you guys coordinating?

[@SouthMainAuto]

Garth Goldberg No this is just how it happened. People think that though hahah

[@justinwilliams3933]

man I feel for you. I live just south of Atlanta GA. I rarely ever see rust that bad. Good video man. God bless

[@rab..]

Great tutorial ! Gonna have to do this as soon as my wheel bearing turns up, it's annoying having to throw out a perfectly good wheel bearing because of a rotten 2 cent metal clip but whatcha gonna do ? Thanks for the video!

[@haywardsautomotive6156]

Wow got to see the Snap-on long barrel in action. Nice uneventful bearing change & another happy SMA customer!

[@skullboyz1968]

Thank you for your videos, it really helps me understand the odds and ends to look out for/prep for when doing this type of work.

[@4literpowered]

One thing we don't deal with often on the west coast, and that is rust and salt. Nice to see these videos on how to deal with it.

[@SouthMainAuto]

+4literpowered I can send you some

[@4literpowered]

No i'm good. We wouldn't know what to do if we saw that stuff, we would just run away from it.

[@comingundone27]

Nice to see someone who has to deal with rust like do here in Michigan. Gonna have to pick me up one of those shake n break tools. Also thank you for turning me onto fluid film. Hardly a job goes by that I don't use it on now!

[@SouthMainAuto]

+Nick Palmer I have them right here if you need one...astore.amazon.com/httpswwwy0837-20/detail/B008M23A5U

[@DylanFahey]

Stabilizer bushing (or whatever they are) are shot. That's why it rides like a delivery truck. And yea, the Meditation Music while doing the hammer job was spot on !

[@Roger-ob2ft]

Stabilizer bushing?

[@baxrok2.]

Great job all around on this one Eric. The Autel functions, the sensor types, the Shake and Break, I learned a lot. Plus, your video work just keeps getting better and better! Thanks!

[@denniswilkinson1118]

Another great video Eric. I like the way you have your assistant hand you the necessary tools to perform the surgery.LOL.

[@oathkeeperscocgame31]

Eric the 720p at 60 FPS looks amazing! I hope future videos will be the same. Anyway, you're literally the only youtube channel I follow. Keep it up and thanks!

[@Jon.Rushing]

For that compass being roughly 8 years old I would have expected the backing plates to be falling apart. That job went a little to easy for you haha. Great production once again and congratulations on breaking the thirty-thousand subscriber mark.

[@AIRMANBEAR]

MY BACKING PLATE WAS RUSTED THRU IN N.Y. I SHOULD PAINTED IT EARLY ON.

[@victorvillasana3409]

That snap on air hammer is a beast!

[@TheJmich2001]

Fluid Film FTW!! Great video as always Eric and Hannah!!

[@wyattoneable]

Man that Astro light is perfect for filming. Hanna and hammers to the rescue!

hey eric when might there be a new average day in the shop vid?

[@arturodeleon9086]

Now

[@5jjt]

I bought one of those newer, smaller jump-packs and it couldn't jump-start my van. The battery was at 12.6 volts, but was low on amps. Those older, larger jump-packs have higher amperage.

[@isrealperez9069]

That's pretty nice cuz I was working on that over the weekend and I'm not done yet cuz I don't have a power tool to remove it I was thinking about just trying to figure out if I can drill it out I did the other side no problem but for some apparent reason passenger side is a tough one thank you for sharing you said it's a 17 do you remember what the bolt pitch is I didn't want to go to the dealership they want too much money I paid $44 for four of them I'm not too long ago well actually last year

[@mikebrennan4534]

oh how i love being a mechanic in orlando florida. the hell with all that rust.

[@barrymoss900]

Great video, hope Snap on sell the shake and break in the UK what a useful tool

[@charredskeleton]

Lisle makes one too, might be US only though.

[@bryanshow2678]

Holy Shit bro. I just finished this job. This video made it super easy. I had one problem. My wheel speed sensor was so hard to get back in. If I knew it was going to be that tight I would have pried it out a hair before installing the hub. Also the clip was slightly dif then what was on it stock. I think that was the biggest problem but it all works so thanks for the video.

[@AIRMANBEAR]

THE CHINESE HOLDING CLIP IS NOT SPRING STEEL AND DOES NOT HOLD WELL....BEND IT INTO THE CLIP MORE TO HOLD BETTER ..

[@michael-dm2bv]

3:48 - old singer commercial sewing machines (50ish) used singer made thread pitches on a lot of hardware. if you buy one and it is missing screws or nuts hardware store replacements won't fit.

[@marktully391]

We are look at a 2014 Patriot. there is a vibration when putting on breaks quickly tracked it to bad rotors. But there is dragging feel and grinding grinding sound from the rear but it smooths out and grinding sound goes away when barely compressing the breaks. My question is do you think it’s a bad caliper or bad wheel bearing(s) or both? I know you’re the Jeep guy, so I’m sure you have already dealt with this.

[@douglaslaramie9245]

Nice job Eric. Why does all your repairs go just like the book? Mine, not so much. Thanks for the vid. Thanks to your assistant also. Good work. Doug

[@SouthMainAuto]

+Douglas Laramie By the book!? Come on I get slid by this rusty crap all the time

[@mikepratali5582]

Thanks Eric, made it easy. Now my daughter won't have to turn the radio up so loud to hide the noise

[@michaeltorrent7829]

With the weather having eaten away some of the head of the 4 bolts that hold the bearing on, why did you not get 4 new bolts?

[@kcp629]

9:07 now that was the coolest slowmo I ever seen.

[@montydaniels1054]

@South Main Auto Repair LLC. My sons 2007 Jeep Liberty Limited 4x4 needs the rear wheel bearing but it doesn't look anything like this one. I wonder if you have to pull the axle shaft out in order to get the bearing off & replaced...

[@PeteyG708]

Always love to see that Nano, AKA "The Beast!" So when is Hannah going to come on camera and guide us through a repair? SMA, The Next Generation?? Haha.

[@SouthMainAuto]

+Pete Gaytan III Oh nooooo ... she is going on to the medical field after next year when she graduates.

[@HUBBABUBBADOOPYDOOP]

That new Air Hammer is *sick*. I'm surprised it doesn't have a cushion grip- probably hurts your hand after a minute.

[@tomoakhill8825]

Oh the music at 8:58 is wonderful.

[@bobbyalonzo6635]

I love your show I have a couple questions is there anything on a car that you can't repair and where did you learn new skills thank you

[@SouthMainAuto]

I can't rebuild an automatic transmission but I am willing to try anything.

[@luisurrutia8100]

Great video, any idea on the torque for those 4 bolts

[@dst6619]

great job Hana. you make sure the boss looks good and keep the video going smooth! :-)

[@DanaCrosby]

To update I had a chafe through of the left rear ABS harness green with black stripe power wire right in front of the Cooling fan

[@dronesandstuff61]

Hannah deserves more credit and recognition! Nice job! Awesome slow mo special effects too...LMAO

[@SouthMainAuto]

+Scott Wyant I praise her for the good job she does.

[@ZaferOzen1]

Idk why you replaced the bearing. My reason was the small housing holding the speed sensor was broken. I glued (E6000) my speed sensor instead of changing the bearing and So far so good.

[@theoldwizard998]

Watch out Hannah ! I started handing wrench to my Dad at about 10-12yo. By the time time I was 15, I was the chief mechanic of the family fleet ! Dad would say, "Your sister's car needs and oil change and your Mom's car needs point and plugs. You are going to have to do shocks on my car soon !" And I didn't even have a drivers license yet !

[@ftothel794]

dude... you're a life saver.

[@ronpeters3065]

so should I attempt to do this myself or take it to the shop. good video bud but I didn't know my speed score was in the barrings and I don't have a computer like you do.

[@ronpeters3065]

[@jefflowery8846]

Thanks for you video, my repair went good with help from your video! 🙂👍

[@nicknicu1787]

Congrats on 30K subs!

[@TheGreatdane56]

I REALLY ENJOY YOUR VID'S brings back memories and almost every time you screw a bolt, i find myself screwing it in with my fingers at the same time.LOL

[@testosteroneinc.3800]

Lol! This guy loves his brake clean. Good video sir. Got a new sub today. Will be checking out your Amazon store too Keep up the good videos. BTW... I think this video is proof, not to buy a vehicle west of the Mississippi. Salt does nasty things to metal, paint, rubber, and electronics.

[@SouthMainAuto]

Oh yeah upstate NY here eats them alive!

[@JasonTheMunicipalMechanic]

The slow motion section of knocking out the bearing needs a slow motion cut away of a person being held back screaming nooooo. Haha

[@carslover3509]

hi Eric great work please what that spray which use it at last to cover the sensor from moist ?

[@gemjun1959]

So the only reason the wheel bearing needed to be replaced is because of a fragile clip assembly that the sensor plugs into. Not because the wheel bearing is faulty. Talk about a bad engineering design.

[@patrickodonnell618]

Excellent video. Solved my problem. 👍 Thanks

[@Paulharris015]

Great video! currently replacing the rear driver side on my 07 patriot. I am stuck getting the whole assembly off. I got all 4 bolts off the hub assembly, but i cant get the whole thing off now. coming from Indiana, its pretty rusty. I sprayed it down with penetrating oil, and beat the heck out of it with my mallet. shouldn't it just fall off? any tips for this? Thanks and keep the videos coming!

[@michaelszweda]

we don't have to do that in FLA they just fall out LOL some times. keep the vids coming THANKs ERIC and HANNA great job
