This guy is the best at tutorials for car/truck repair videos on KZbin!

I see most young mechanics hammering on their expensive fine-tooth ratcheting socket wrenches. They don't use long breaker bars anymore, for heavy bolts that require a lot of leverage to break loose? This was a clear, concise video, nice job!

[@holdenmedia638]

just did this to my '08 4x4...the video explained everything perfectly...loving taps and all.(32mm deep socket for the axle nut btw) and I opted for green loctite over red. the howl is gone!

[@FT4Freedom]

32mm hub socket. Red thread locker is way overkill and may make those bolts very difficult to remove at the next 60k miles. Just clean and torque to spec. Many mechanics actually add anti seize to all the bolts. Ranger bearings are frequently replaced. I'm a long time ranger owner and several bearings later.

[@andrewmiller1761]

Thank you for stating the hub socket size!! I also thought the red thread locker was a bit much.

[@jsardi56]

Thanks for this video. Saved me 100's. Plus gave me the confidence to think I could actually do it. Also, the ABS connector may be round or square. Check before buying.

[@stephenbates1820]

Just got mine swapped out because of this video. Saved a lot of money!!! Thank you!

Please add a note in the title that this is for a 4x4, the design of the 2x4 brakes is entirely different

[@jamesmackenzie1451]

Does everything in the hub assembly come pre packed with grease? And do you not need to add grease to any of the surfaces before reassembling?

[@emmanuelgonzalez2244]

Bro! Thank you for the easy to understand video. Keep it up 👍🏽

+Emmanuel Gonzalez Thanks for the feedback! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ

[@daddyg5654]

This is only true for the 4W drive models. You should do a front bearing replacement for the 2W drive. It's very different and involves removing an outer race from the rotor.

[@micksvajgr6481]

would be sick if you would tell us what tools you used to remove anything...

[@THRUTHESEEYES]

You should add that you need to use anti seize on the knuckle before mounting the new wheel bearing. This will keep it from rust welding and therefore easier to replace next time.

[@lagunacorona]

My ranger has integrated hubs on the brake rotors, how can I switch to slip ons?

[@bradlopez3681]

Thanks so much this got my through my repair today

[@johnnytoy5487]

Great video 👍 thanks

[@GeorgeJefferson-h7w]

Mine is a 2000 and came with the "auto locking" hubs that used a vacuum pulse to engage the axle. When one wore out I could not find a new one or even a used one from a junkyard anywhere so I had to get manual locking hubs. Looks like this ranger just stays locked.

[@XloMotion]

You got the nicest rust ever! 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 I need a torch, bfh and plenty of beer to remove mines

[@zacharybush3979]

Great video! Thanks for posting this!!

+@zacharybush3979 Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ

[@davidduren1426]

What size is the nut holding the axle?

[@johnmacdonald5842]

Great video. Very professional

[@jacobcarpentier4254]

Does someone know where I can buy a Hub assembly for a Ford Ranger 2010 2WD?

[@vandle97]

Elementary my friend, love it

[@ryandobbins6027]

you dont need to grease the new wheel hub, the wheel bearings come greased?

[@NightFury042]

Amazing vid, great detail. thx

[@Choirnrd1]

Looking forward to doing this job.

[@number1dad610]

This guy is good. Thanks

[@ColtonUnknown]

Fvkn incredible. Thank you

[@shanefrank3281]

My 2003 is nothing like this. Is this for 4x4?

[@Stone_cold_5.9]

Was this for a 4wd or 2wd or are they the same

[@georgedwinell54]

Clearly 4wd

[@brianv.1300]

On my 2006 4wd Ranger front wheel bearing nut was 31mm (not 32mm it was sloppy).

[@josephmorell2836]

very useful thank you very much.

[@startrekking359]

What size axel nut is that, thanks.

[@FT4Freedom]

32mm.

[@jgarb21]

What are your thoughts on only replacing the Bearings? Under $15 vs. $170.

[@stevehensley7731]

I can’t get my axle to turn lose r. I haven’t put heat on it yet. You didn’t touch on the rubber axle boots. How to get them out of the way. The hole you put your punch in hasn’t released anything yet. You said heat and a hammer. I can’t hardly believe it’s that easy to detach the axle without having issues as ownership lingers .

[@johnmajane3731]

That is a beat up ranger. I have a bad wheel bearing on mine but we cannot figure out which one.

[@dougt4652]

Would be nice to say the nut sizes as you go.

[@DaveSomething]

I thought you sounded familiar...

[@guywaugh7110]

He done all that in 9mins. Why r mechanics charging so much labor?

[@TheFourducksdan]

I think 2WD I’d done a bit differently,

[@primitiveassembly199]

that thang is rusty
