New Wheel Bearing from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1AAX...
This video shows you how to install a rear axle bearing on your 1997-2003 Ford F-150. If you hear a grinding or groaning noise while your vehicle is rolling, it might have a worn out wheel bearing. A worn bearing can allow the wheel to wobble, creating a host of other issues. To save yourself from more headaches down the road, replace your bearing right away. For solid rear axles, you'll need to replace the axle seal too.
This process should be similar on the following vehicles:
1997 Ford F-150
1998 Ford F-150
1999 Ford F-150
2000 Ford F-150
2001 Ford F-150
2002 Ford F-150
2003 Ford F-150

Excellent video. Thanks for putting it together!

This seems so easy to do but yet most mechanics will not even touch bearings that have to be pressed in.. it is very disappointing and makes me wish I had the tools to do this myself luckily I have one person that can get this done for me on my 03 Ford f150 but I am learning to fix my truck myself my 03 Ford F-150 is my bread and butter

[@Uke96789]

Usually, you can rent the tools from Mahalo Zone ( checker auto parts or Auto Zone ) ;-) IF someone hasn't already rented it before you and stole it. lol

[@ScottPolcyn-k6e]

I wish you would fix my truck. Wonderful job! Very informative. Thank you!

Hmmmm.... What Size is the Bearing Removal tool you are using on the inside? Also I am wondering, do we no longer using Axle grease, or is it obsolete now days? Packing or greasing bearings is no longer necessary? I'm just a little confused. IS it only for Tapered Bearings or can it or should it be also be used on these type of bearing as well? Please clarify this for me. Thank you in advance !!!

[@richardvila3]

I use high temperature bearings grease, it should eventually dissolve. Hopefully no harm to it, never had problems before

“A razor is best” then cuts to another scene where he’s clearly used a grinder to clean it.

[@gerardodonaire699]

Nice video thank you

[@robertprice3697]

What is the bearing and seal size you have installed?!.

[@kidsythe]

I understand this guy is smarter than me. but seeing anything being done to the hub centric part of that axel shaft made me do the rocks smolder

[@johneppenauer6772]

Why not grease the axle hub last as your putting it back together?

[@pitztoplawncare6781]

You are the best

[@terryclements3830]

WHAT IS THE BEARING AND SEAL SIZES?.

We need to thank Joe Biden because without him there would be no vice president Kamala. Nobody else would have chosen a female for Vice President Joe Biden is a great president and I think people were too fast to write him off. I like to see President Kamala in the White House as much as anybody else but got to remember a couple of things things are going well but she has a tough fight. She's dealing with a guy who has spent his whole life somehow weaseling out of trouble and getting away with things that most normal people would never get away with
