I feel like I'm watching my dad work, thanks a lot pops!! You're a great teacher.
He said no talking but he explained everything pretty good. I have a feeling he can't keep a secret. Great video.
Thanks for watching.
@@jimthecarguy If you can, keep making videos. DIYers like myself can learn something.
Thks for clearly showing us the hub assembly process by holding the back before pressing in the hub... a lot of CZcamsrs don't bother trying ... great video
Glad it helped
Always install snap rings with their gap facing down so that moisture can exit by gravity.
Thanks for watching and your input
How much work like this one cost
Man I just had an oh shit moment. Did it on the passenger side but got in a rush on the driver side.
@@christianhilditch9333 Doh, your wheel is going to fall off...in fifty years.
@@jessg1134 If you have to ask what it costs, you can't afford it.
I love your videos very informative. I have to do this for a 2016 Honda CRV. Should be a similar process. The only thing I do different when pressing in new bearings is, I put them in the freezer overnight it makes them slide in so much easier. And old-timer showed me that years ago. Again thanks for the video
I bought that kit after I saw it used on a SMA video. Eric O uses a thrust bearing on the forcing screw. I followed his advice and do the same. It seems to reduce the wear on the screw shoulder.
Actually Eric mentioned that to me and I agree it is much easier
Excellent Auto Repair Man, I Love his Calm Demeanor too.
I have a bad wheel bearing on my 2014 Accord. I see I won't be doing this job. I lack the tools, the puller to be exact.
Very informative and interesting video.
Barry
I'm happy to help. Thanks for watching
Jim, your instructional video is truly excellent. Most informative and detailed. I can tell you're a great mechanic! You have great attention to detail. This job wasn't an easy one, but you did it superbly.
Thanks 👍
Quality job my friend. Thanks for the very detailed and descriptive tutorial!
Jim,another excellent video thanks you for sharing Artie ❤️
Thanks for watching
@@jimthecarguy Just subscribed, simply because I really enjoy watching your videos. I love learning and you my friend teach really good 👌 God bless you.
Currently attempting to tackle this project.... Thanks again for your video!!!
You can do it!
@@jimthecarguy JOB IS DONE!!! Thank you Jim!!!! Saved a ton of money doing this myself my friend! And you make it look so easy, lol. I have to admit that was frustrating. Lol especially all the snap ring pliers i snapped. But you said You can do it in the video and i stuck with it. Had to use long handled needle nose pliers to get the snap ring out myself, which worked great compared to cheaply made tools i had. Truly, again Thank you!
Great video sit thank you . Going to be doing my front wheel bearing soon and this will help a lot. Take care
Glad it helped
Great video!... and dialogue explaining as you go through each step! Unless I missed it, when the race was removed from the hub I didn't see where it was replaced. Does that need to be replaced?
Thanks for taking the time, Jim. Great video!
Should I replace the front hub assembly and bearings to replace a broken off dust shield and go through taking apart the entire front end of the car like this or am I better off jumping off the golden gate bridge and calling it a day?
yea jim I cheaped out and got the astro from the mac guy otc is really the way to go cheaper then snap on
This kit has just about everything you need for the older cars as well as most new ones
Why does my honda accord 2010 only 60k such low mileages but already have a bad wheel bearing?
Cause its still an older car.
Excellent video. Very informative. Thank you!
Very professional detailed I forgot to mention
Hello thank you so much for everything you have done great teaching.
Excellent video. It made the job easy!
I subscribed to your channel cuz I know you’re good and doing it professionally. Would this be the same procedure as in 2014 crv and do I need to do wheel alignment after if I remove the knuckle from the vehicle? Thanks
Jim thanks you are the best
I need my driver side wheel bearing replaced. I hope the mechanic doing the work does it right. Hoping in Virginia!
Best bearing video seen
Where can I order the bearings removal tools? Please and thank you
Hola excelente vídeo , esta herramienta también sirve para Ford , VW en nueva generación en la cual la masa es integrada junto con el balero , gracias
Thanks for watching.
I had a mechanic tell me my front wheel bearing needs to ve replaced. The showed my some play in the wheel. I've had a rear wheel bearing go on another car and could hear a distinctive scraping coming from the wheel area. I hear nothing from this car and no loose feeling steering. Could it be something else causing the play like a tie rod? Is $300 reasonable to replace the wheel bearing? Seems a bit high? it took about an hour to do on my other car and the part new is about $80. He wants to rebuild the part.
good wheel bearing replacement # 👍 but if the new hub is installed thee is no need to cut & remove the old hub inner metal circumference # 👍🇵🇰 metal
Great attention to detail. Thank you Sir
Very good video; informative, interesting, and professionally done. You always make a long video seem short. My only question is: Why did you remove the caliper and bracket separately, instead of simply taking it off as one piece?
Always follow you,been awrench for 50yrs, can always learn. Where's your shop?Sound like a NYer.
Excellent review video but this is mad work!!
Thanks so much for your videos support. How many pounds have the wheel nut
Great video.👍🏼
Thank you Jim, Great Video. Thumbs Up.. Richards"Mobile" Auto and Air
wow Jim, what a big job, to replace a frt wheel bearing. What is your charge for 2 sides like that? I have a 72 Olds Cutlass Supreme, and myself and a friend did a frt disc brake conversion, a few yrs ago. That included replacing the inner & outer frt wheel bearings, and that is a piece of cake, compared to the job u had on that honda. I enjoy your videos very much. Very good teaching videos Clay
Thanks for watching.
Clay Cook actually this job is very easy with the right tools thanks for watching
Thanks Jimmy, great content!
Is there another way to take off that piece without cutting it ?
If you can do this job on the vehicle, how do you get the axle through the hub? Do you have to pop out either of the ball joints to do it?
Can you take the caliper and bracket as a single unit?
Hi sir. Your video is amazing and helpful,I have questions if you don't mind. My accord Hub bearing is already dead and I have Abs and tiered lamp on Now, its because Hub bearing dead? And do you think it's gonna be Abs lamp off if I replaced it 🙄. Thank you for your answer.
Ahmed from Iraq
Good question. Yes when a hub bearing goes bad it can cause the ABS light to come on.
Cool Vid Sir!!!!
Thanks!
Glad you liked it!
I have a 2010 Honda Accord. About 2 change the whole knuckle along with the bearing, its literally about to fall off my car. So bad today it threw my cars abs and vsa lights! It’s knocking and grinding and poppin like crazy! Anyway, my main and only question is, WHAT SIZE IN THE AXLE NUT SOCKET!? That’s the only thing I’m finding mixed answers to. Please get back to me ASAP. Thank you. Please somebody
I thought I could do this on my own but I don't have a grappler. Any other feasible suggestions for a DIYer?
What size socket do you use to remove the axle nut?
36mm
What happened to put in mainete right way
What are torque specs on ball joints
The last piece you put on the back of the bearing.....what is that? You're a good mechanic Jim. Very well done and very clearly explained. I enjoy your vids and learn quite a bit. Thanks.
Thanks for watching and your input
@@jimthecarguy I wanted to know what the last piece you put on the back of the hub was.
@@jamespinckard4210 tough he doesn't want to tell u so be quiet
I don't know what Honda calls it but it's loosely called the backring where I work. We machine these steering knuckles. It holds the axle boot to the knuckle.
@@jamespinckard4210 it's called the front knuckle ring if you're still wondering.
What’s that ring called at 24:10 and where can I get it at??. I damaged mines replacing the lower ball joint.
Thanks, a lot for an awesome video. God bless
Thanks Jim!!
I have a 2010 Maxima. Is there anything you can do to maintain the wheel bearings? Can you lube or grease them? Thanks
No you can't grease the bearings just try to avoid big pot hole. Thanks for watching.
Do you have to replace the dust shield?
Awesome video sir
How long should this job take on a 2012 honda civic? Thanks
i get it, its a good job. but as a mechanic at home id rather change the whole knuckle with a new one. dont have the tools for that
Two questions:
1. What was that piece you sawed off called?
2.Does that piece need to get replaced?
That’s part of the old bearing called the race, the new one is part of the new bearing
I have Honda Accord v6 my passenger side front tire wobbles and shakes every time I make my turns , drives fine going straight but wobbles just that side does any one know ??
what all tool size will i need
What is that ring called , shown at 13:05
What size is the axle nut
36
Good job my friend say hi from Yakima Washington Apple’s Rule. Epifanio
Legend 👌 Thank you sir!!
I know it’s more $ but for a diy job would it make life a lot easier to rest a whole new knuckle with the new bearing and hub already pressed in?
Also should I change both sides at once even if 1 side is bad?
Lastly would I need an alignment after
Thanks Sir!
Shouldnt need alignment. I greatly regret not just saving up for the "loaded" knuckle. The snap ring is currently kicking my ass and ive already trashed a hub marring it. And good rule of thumb to do both sides. They have equal wear so its likely also making noise or will be.
@@jesseredfield8194 Thx. Yeah I bought the loaded knuckle from ebay. TRQ brand which is 1AAuto’s brand. So far so good. I got both sides but only did 1 so far. Will do other side in the spring. $110 each. Not bad
@@pujo28 a1 auto $110 each????? Now I'm REALLLLLY kickin myself man. 😂
Interested in these all in one knuckles too! I blinked and paid to have a shop press in a new Honda bearing. But if this happens again, hmmm. I think the big question is what kind of bearing is in that full knuckle. If they put in a crappy 20 dollar bearing then the rest of it is a moot point in a couple years
@@jesseredfield8194curious what is so tough about the snap ring? I haven't done it myself but with circlip pliers the videos make it look easy
Nice video. Question what size is the axle nut . Thanks
I think it’s 36
Thanks, Jim, for a very informative video. Just out of curiosity, what is the charge for this customer in terms of parts and labor?
Depends on your location but in Northern N.J. using a good quality bearing about $300-$400.00 including the wheel alignment.
@@jimthecarguy My local Firestone here in central NJ quoted me almost $900 to replace the knuckle, hub and bearing, saying it all comes pre assembled and they don't replace the bearings. Their price on the part was almost $600. I know I can get one for less than that if I do the entire assembly, and it seems easy enough to do myself....
But $300-400 to replace just the bearing, including parts, labor and alignment doesn't sound too bad! Not sure if the hub and knuckle really need to be replaced either (especially the knuckle)...
Changing the bearing like in this video will require tools and experience I don't have and don't want to take that chance on a daily driver so if I go that route I'll get the parts myself and take it to a local shop.
@@AWHNJ I would not replace the entire assembly unless it was damaged. You may think about removing the assembly yourself and taking it to an auto parts store that has a machine shop press and have them press it onto you old knuckle. Keep me posted.
@@jimthecarguy Thank you for the suggestion and great video, I enjoyed watching! That's definitely not a bad idea. I priced the bearing at $70 and the hub was only $60, both OEM original Honda. I'm still thinking of doing the hub because
1. The car has 220k miles on it and may as well replace it while I'm in there (will do the passenger side one when time comes to replace the front bearing on that side)
2. No additional labor time, in fact less time because I wouldn't have to saw the other piece of the bearing off the old hub.
I will definitely keep you posted though it might take some time to get it done it's been bitter cold here and I don't have a garage. The bearing isn't terribly noisy yet, but I can hear some hum kinda like tire noise almost. I assume the bearing is on borrowed time but not completely shot yet.
Thanks again!
@@jimthecarguy Update (since you said to keep you posted), I just ordered a new OEM Honda hub and bearing from a Honda dealer in Ohio for $130 plus $12 shipping and no tax. After watching this video again I decided I'm going to take it to a local shop who does high quality work. Based on your price estimate I'm assuming he should charge me no more than $300-350 considering I'm supplying the parts and using a new hub will save him the step of sawing off the piece of the old bearing. If he recommended changing the tie rod ends maybe I'll have that done too. Probably won't get the work done until sometime in April. Will update again later.
Jim where did you get the magnet tray with the separation?
Check below my video in the description it is in my Amazon store.Thanks for watching.
Hopefully someone can answer this. I just change the wheel bearing on the front passenger side and now ABS light VSA light has come on. I switched out the sensor, but light is still on. Anybody know what’s going on?
Did you put the bearing in backwards? Magnetic part of bearing facing in?
whats the configuration of that last ring/clip you put on. I just did my passenger bearing and didn't realize that was supposed t o be on there. now I can't figure out how it goes back on. whats the name of that piece?
just goes in a slot in front of the wheel bearing
Like the video but too many damn ads
one thing.... ive done hundreds of bearings...and I never torqued... theres no preload...I slam it and never had a comeback
If only I had the proper tools.
You said you were going to show the noise and then tore everything apart. Then said the expensive tool can be used without taking it all apart, then you took it all apart.
.
Why did I think I could just spray some wd40 on it. Lol
Tool is $500+. I will stick with a press.
Rent it from an auto part store. It’s basically free
Godfatherblunt10
This is not rentable in any of the brick and mortar auto parts stores. I contacted corporate on all known shops.
Why not just buy the whole assembly for $112? New hub and bearing ? Seems a lot easier
Thanks for watching
Wow, after 40 years of turning wrenches I am so jealous that you can magically take apart a rusted hub with little effort. Everything was pre removed and installed. I realize you are doing this to move the vid along but you are fooling DYIers. Those ball joints are not coming apart with one of two taps of the hammer. You WILL ruin the bearing when puling the hub out of it. You have no way to support the outer shell of the bearing. This job sucks for any pro let alone a DYIer. Things will go wrong if you do not no what you are doing. Plan to purchase a new bearing. Plan on cussing this job from start to finish.
Thanks for your opinion but nothing was "pre removed and installed" I did the ball joint in real time as for the bearing it was being replaced because of the noise and not reused. Thanks for your input.
Tool is $500+. I will stick with a press.
Your right it is a little expensive but in most other cases you will save a lot of time by not having to completely disassembling everything. Thanks for watching and your input
@@jimthecarguy Thanks for the video.Very clear and informative.I looked up the grgappler kit here in Canada it's $1000 :( plus what ever other tools I would need.Think I will just buy a press.Do you think a 10 ton would do the job?Thanks again for the great video
Chris
Over here in the uk u can buy a ten tonne press for around £200
How is that not completely disassembling everything? You left the splash shield on? Anyone that has a small bottle jack press and a set of rings can do this without the tools. The question is why... Honda is a bunch of idiots. Most other brands have 4 bolts to zip off after you remove the brakes and you're done.
Pretty sure he means most applications don’t require removing the entire spindle and hub assembly from the car. This one obviously did.
