Awesome video instructions of how to perform this job. I am going to take your advice and just buy a new hub instead of trying to cut part of the bearing off of the old one... hardened steel is no fun to mess around with trying to cut it AND not end up scoring the old hub! The ONLY thing I could suggest for future videos (or maybe add a screen that has it all onto the end of this one even) is to include a quick mention of torque values for all of those nuts and bolts. You've done a great job on this, keep it up!
Thanks I appreciate that. Don't forget to subscribe for more content. If you have any suggestions for repair videos I should make, feel free to let me know. 👍
Wow!!!! Awesome job 😁👍👍 I am thinking the front would be close to the same difficulty? Really appreciate your editing and the muscle pic cracked me up! LOL Thanks again Well Done Sir!
When it got to the bunny part I couldn't stop laughing 😂😂 Definitely my pace for a mechanical how-to video, lmfao. I gotta change my Pilot's rear suspension/control arms/bearings soon. Thanks for the help!
Thanks, but No and even if you could it wouldn't save any money. The issue isn't the ball bearings it's the housing that gets worn over the years and let's the ball bearings have too much play, so even if you replaced just the ball bearings, you would get sounds a few weeks/ months later. It's best to replace the whole assembly and be good to go for a few years. A wheel bearing isn't really expensive anyway. I paid like around $50 for it. It's the labor that's expensive on a job like this, not the parts.
@@Jedi_Luke So, I really didn’t expect a reply so soon and it’s much appreciated. I’m sure with your help I’ll be able to get it done. One more question if you don’t mind. What’s the reason you can’t get the whole bearing out in one piece ? My local shop said that they could press the bearing out and put in a new one for me if I bring it in. So I’d just bring the whole knuckle to them? The parking brake looks like it’s a mechanical so it should be easy to unhook?
@@keithbrown8368 The bearing is 2 pieces like a sandwich. Since it's just pressed on and forced off, that causes half to get stuck. Heat and time, especially if you live in a rust belt state that just helps it get more stuck on. Yes the emergency brake cable can just be unhooked. Follow the video and remove all the control arms and axle then Ebrake cable. Honestly if you're removing the whole knuckle, you can just tap the other half of the bearing out with a few careful hits with a hammer from the backside (axle side), being sure to not hit the knuckle just the bearing. Then just take it up to the shop so they can press the new one in. I have a few other Honda pilot videos for other repairs you might have, so feel free to subscribe if you want. Thanks for watching. 👍
@@Jedi_Luke If I am taking off the whole knuckle would I be able too tap (hammer) the whole bearing and hub in one piece and not need to slide hammer off the hub first( since I am buying a new hub)? Or is that just crazy talk?
@@keithbrown8368 I've done it before, but I'm experienced. You have to be extremely careful if you are gonna try that. Like I said in the video you can rent a slide hammer from any local parts stores, and they give you a refund after you finish with it. If you're talking about getting the old part out yes you can beat it out, just don't damage the knuckle otherwise the new bearing won't fit easily.
Not on this Pilot, but on other cars I've owned yes. It usually comes with a "VSA" light as well. The bearing has to be really bad to trigger both lights tho. Sometimes those lights come on for a bad wheel speed sensor too. Make sure of the issue before you throw parts at it.
@@condemn1214 get a quality code scanner and read the codes. Not a cheap AutoZone free code read. You need a scanner that can read ABS codes. Either that or just take it to a professional to fix. There's no shame in going to shop or experienced professional

Like others have said, this is one of the best DIY / How-to I've seen on this tube. Thank you!
Hands down, absolutely one of the best repair videos that I have ever seen . Good job. 👍🏻other than the lost footage.

This Your the only video in 3 weeks of looking that has what I need. Thanks
Exactly what I needed thanks.
Would really of liked to see how you got the other half of tht bearing out. I bet that was fun!
The opposite of fun lol. Nothing too bad tho, you can either slide hammer it or use the press tool.

Great job!
Great video, one question, can you just put in new ball bearings and re-grease?

Love your toolbox 🤣
Good video
Hello. Can you help me?
Hey swallows wondering I had just replaced my bearing in my hub on the back driver side and now my BPM for is on and my abs I don't know what I did
You probably either broke the abs sensor or didn't reinstall it.
New Sub & Smashed the bell!
Did your Abs sensor lights on? Because mine went on.
Not on this Pilot, but on other cars I've owned yes. It usually comes with a "VSA" light as well. The bearing has to be really bad to trigger both lights tho. Sometimes those lights come on for a bad wheel speed sensor too. Make sure of the issue before you throw parts at it.
@@Jedi_Luke Any advice of what to do?

@@Jedi_Luke I’ve checked my ABS front wheel . Passenger side was loosened. Abs light is gone.
Where can i find the parts?
AutoZone, Orielly, eBay, Amazon. Pretty much anywhere
@@Jedi_Luke i find the front side but i dont Know if Is the same ;(
@@giovannyfelix1114 The employees at the store will help you. Just tell them what you need
