How to replace rear wheel bearing on Toyota Highlander

[@tikitavi7120]

Best dressed mechanic on the west coast.

[@dickymo4204]

By far the most complete demonstration of auto repair I've ever watched. Thank you so much for the how-to.i have an 06 highlander with 300,000 .miles on it and it's the best car I've ever owned. Easily . you've instilled me with the confidence to take it on myself. Appreciate your knowledge and professionalism .

[@Z-Bart]

Good job. She's lucky to have you for her mechanic.

[@Nakai2024]

"Maybe Peter, you don't have it bro" that was awesome, good video peter, well done!

[@dangitification]

Thanks for the video. I just put a new 42410-0E050 wheel bearing from Bosch Toyota South (US) on the back of our 2012 Highlander Base AWD and kept un-pausing this video as I went to watch the different steps. I had to cold grind a flat side bevel on a chisel to get that axle nut un-bent. If anybody is ordering parts for this repair, highly recommend having a new spindle nut on hand and a dedicated spindle nut socket. My 12-pt 30mm had triangle teeth, the dedicated spindle nut socket has more rounded teeth.

Peter is one of a handful of mechanics who put anti-seize compound on customer's cars BEFORE he had a KZbin channel where the know it all public has the opportunity to tell him how to do his job.

Petr, On behalf of the person who will change this bearing again at 340,000 miles - thanks for using anti-seize!! 😄

I really like how you slowly explain thing. It helps to focus on the work. And your step approaching the job is right on. Thank you for taking the time to do the video. Please continue on more videos only when you have time and motivation.

[@jpete3027666]

Great video and helped me a ton. Mine wasn't nearly this easy though. After hitting the old wheel bearing with a hammer for a while trying to get it off, I went and got a puller with a slide hammer. Two pulls and it came right off. If anyone else has the same problem get yourself one of these.

[@condor5635]

Great video! Love the Highlander! Have 2 myself. Snap On is a waste IMHO. Never understood buying them. I don’t care how nice it is. Vanity tools. Tekton does just fine for me. Lifetime guarantee like almost everyone has these days. For this socket - Tekton ~$15. Snap On ~$65. Over 4 times as much. Yeh….

[@drawbridge611]

That monster torque spec would be the only thing that would prevent me from doing the job myself. I've got the build of Mick Jagger. Great video, thank you as always.

[@cjpamp1267]

thats why people buy toyotas their engineeers plan for the future and mechanics like peter are worth their weight in gold

[@RamBo-uu9so]

We own an 06 Highlander Limited 3.3lt, has 314k, runs great. I changed a front wheel bearing, its not the same as the back bearings its a press on bearing. So, you can buy the knuckle or just the bearing. I bought the bearing removal/install tool kit and did it myself. You can take it to a shop. I like to do my own maint. You will need long extensions for pressing the bearing out/in. They tell you not to use drills on the bearing tool drive screw because it strips the screw.

[@benhobe]

Very good. Can't believe the Haynes manual didn't even cover this removal & replacement of this part.

[@tarzan30809]

Thanks Peter! Could you comment on the brand of the replacement part that was replaced. In the market at the moment for this part for a 2001 highlander. Thanks

[@jinpark5324]

Just purchased a 13 pc 1/2” 12 points impact sockets set from Harbour Freight for $19.99 which include 30mm socket.

Perfect timing Petr. Replacing rear wheel hub on 05 Optima with similar design. Pass thru bolt holes.

[@walter.bellini]

Thank you Peter I have 2009 Highland and I love it to death So far my bearing all around are still sound but I know that soon enough they will need to be changed out. Very nice to see that it can be a DIY project minus the beautiful car lift that you have.

[@SirRommy]

It seems you can't get a whole assembly for the front though? Only a kit?? I need this done to my front passenger side.

[@maxi-me]

@16:15 "don't breathe it" _he says without wearing a mask_ 🤣 Spoken like a true shop teacher!

[@JoseEstrada-ce2rj]

Is this the same for the front hub assembly. Can you just buy the assembly and replace similar to this

[@Calvin7007]

Thank U Soooooo Much For Walking Us Through This From A-Z 😎

I sure hope the Mrs. got a new toothbrush out of that job and you didn't just put her old one in the degreaser! 😆

[@bigkenny66]

What ever happened to the good old days of my teenage years where you would re-pack your wheel bearings every 12,000 miles? And a new bearing was $12.00.

[@carmonaaa5782]

If you buy a toyota land cruiser 100 series those still use spindles and re packable wheel bearings. They were made all the way up to 2007 but are pretty pricey nowadays since there's a big land cruiser tax on all of them lol

[@BrockOBauma]

The good old days? Servicing bearings every 12k doesn't sound good at all. These new ones last longer and are easier to change.

[@kevinbarry71]

Nobody wants to do that crap anymore. They went the same place as points

[@LAactor]

@@BrockOBauma using a slide hammer and sledging a press in vs popping off a cap and pushing some grease into the area and putting the cap back on? Not harder than having to press in the modern day bearing.

[@BrockOBauma]

@@LAactor there was no press, slide hammer, or sledge used in this video. What are you talking about?

[@donaldmiller3064]

So easy for the DIY person. My Honda CRV has the same design and I have changed one.

[@MikeAndNary]

That garage door shaking in the wind, there is a remedy for that. There's a company that sells bushings that reduce or eliminate the shaking from the wind. Sorry, can't remember the companies name. I think you can get the bushing on Amazon.

[@LAactor]

Or even jam some cardboard into the rails making sure to be careful to not damage the track. It's not his shop and he might be looking for a better place anyway

[@Robert-qm2ti]

Great video, can you please tell us where you got the new bearing assembly? Was it OEM or ??

[@neill.m.herbert]

Looks like the front bearings are a totally different story, though, huh?

[@aliothman-hc4dg]

This is a great video. Thank you for taking the time and sharing!

[@ChadTruss]

This is a great how to. I am trying to do this right now. I'm stuck because I don't have a good hammer to pound the dent out of that axle lock nut. haha

[@genoaoak]

The 8mm bolts to remove rotors and rear drums undoubtedly saves a few bearings from the pounding of a sledge normally used to break them loose.

[@wheaterz7567]

Are you referring to the metric threaded bolts used to pop the rotor off and are they 1.25 or 1.5 diameter? THx!

[@wangofree]

Excellent Video Peter! Sounds like the Santa Ana winds are pummeling your shop. ;-)

[@LAactor]

Pete, do you recommend tightening the axle nut while it's in the air but waiting until the wheel is back on the ground when you torque it? They way they don't fight it in the air.. We know you only did it this way to show us and the camera easier so you don't have to do another camera angle setup.

Learn basic brakes before charging ppl for wheel bearings on Toyotas!! Especially when the wheels are original. U r either stealing money or u have no idea what u r doing. Did u replace brakes afterwards?

No reply from this joker!!!

[@user-tt4cq6ju9n]

Been watching this channel for awhile. That being said, this joke of a purposed Toyota repair master is full of it. Most of this is overcharging hard working ppl. The vast majority needs brakes!! Not a new wheel bearing!! Peter ur a grifter
