Shouldn't I use Loctite the hub assembly bolts?
I can’t tell you how many times I’ve bought parts from rockauto, then come to watch a 1A auto video about how to install them, then remembered how helpful you guys are and felt so terrible about not even checking your prices before buying! Thanks for the help and sorry I always remember you too late!
+Jay Eickholtz Thanks for watching. Buy the part in this video on 1AAuto.com: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
This is a real how to video. Easy to follow, step by step. Will buy from these guys based on this alone! Great job!

Doing the cv axle and wheel hub assembly on my 09 Silverado 1500 this weekend. I now buy all my parts through you and it’s really helpful with the how to videos. Thanks guys!!
Thanks for the detailed video!
The shop wanted over $700.
I was able to do it in under two hours following the instructions in the video. It’s great that you are giving the torque so I didn’t have to look it up elsewhere.
Great video. Love when guys get straight to the point......we type in what we're looking for, and unlike most videos, these guys are doing just what I typed searching for. Thx so much
2007 gmc 1500 4x4. .. Had to put the bearing bolts back in and pound on the bolts to get it to back out. ( put socket on before pounding) beat on it with a hammer wouldn’t budge till I put bolts back in the back side
The 36 mm bolt.. mercy 3 ft cheater bar wouldn’t break it loose. Had to get impact and about 2 mins finally
Got it.
Put your 3/8 drives away use all 1/2 drives. Snapped a 3/8 extension.
Sure helps to have the right tools ahead of time lol
Thanks for the video. I replaced both wheel bearings under 3 hours.
Torque spec
-Wheel bearing (3) 133 ftlb
-brake caliper (2) 100 ftlb
-brake piston bolt (2) 50 ftlb
-wheel lug nuts (6) 140 ftlb
What about the axle nut?
177ftlbs

Great video and excellent quality. Did the repair on my ‘08 sierra and worked perfectly. Thank you for putting the video out!

awesome video guys. i was able to do mine in an hour. i removed the brake mounting caliper as a complete assembly without any issues. Thank you!
Really like your videos, very helpful. Just noticed you did not put the dust cap back on after tightening the center nut.
Nor the T30 torx but good videos. 👍👍👍👍
This is a much better video than the older one I watched, I like the detail he adds to the instruction.
+Donald Dean Thanks for checking us out. Shop here for high quality auto parts: 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Great video! East and straight forward. Thanks for adding the other clip in and no biggie that it wasn’t in order. Forgot to put your grease cap back on!
Just disassembled the right front on a 2008 Silverado, and the axle nut was actually 35 mm not 36. Glad I had a set. Had trouble getting the hub out, so I reinserted the bolts and left a gap. Then I used my air hammer alternating bolt heads.
Great video helped me get it done. Y'all forgot the t30 bolt lol
Shaun Colgan don’t need it. Gm recommends you take it out. It’s only in to hold the rotor on during assembly in the factory
@@Poopoopoop100 no joke?
@@Poopoopoop100 "Gm recommends you take it out.". Got a source for this? Honestly, I can't think of a really good reason it needs to be there, and no one is going to cry over it being missing, but that's far different from GM recommending it.
Think I might replace my bearings just for fun, you made this look so easy!
+David Moss Thanks for watching. If any of our viewers needs to make this repair, we carry the auto repair part shown in this video on our website. Here is a link to them www.1aauto.com/1A/front-wheel-bearings-and-hubs/Chevy/Silverado1500/1ASHF00197?CZcams&CTA+Comment&XknVcvYIM
The best how to do it video and explanation I have seen . GREAT JOB. THANKS. It makes life easier. GMC. Gentleman's Club.
you guys must be from the south because my 2007 had more rust and corrosion from our hard winters here in Canada, and salt on the roads. My hub didn't come off that easy. I had torch heat, big hammer and a puller got mine off.
thanks for the video
my trucks underbody looks great and i'm from northern ontario. spend 200 bucks a year and have your vehicle uncoated... or, for 125 bucks for the spray gun and 80 for 5 gallons of underspray from maslack -- you could do it yourself , pays for itself the first time and you can do 3, really well covered undercoats with the 5 gallons.
Did this in an hour and a half in my driveway. Thanks for the help.
I get to do this project on my 12 Gmc sierra. Thank you for the great video.
Great video but for others address the fact you will have to torch and pound w a big sledge to get the old one out. I did that for an hour then it was easy peazy
Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com +Nicholas DeCarlo
That's a rarity.
I’m betting you got a rust bomb
Yeah live in Minnesota.😆 Iron unless you plan on changing it every year or 2
They have a video were they try getting one out from this channel lol
Very helpful video. Did my own today without a hitch! thanks for posting
Oh, one thing, the 36mm socket I bought felt a little sloppy on the axle nut. Would a 35mm been a better choice?
+croteaud Congratulations on the successful repair. We're glad the video helped you out. 1aauto.com?CZcams&CTA%20Comment&ATony 866-403-3393
+croteaud Yeah, that's definitely possible! If it's even been replaced it could certainly be a 35mm instead. Use whatever feels like it fits the best.
Just bought the hub. Great deal for the pair, I’m hoping the are good quality. Thanks!
+Waylon Ratcliffe Thank you for your feedback and your business!
Thanks guys,just popped mine out,it was a bear.Air chisel did the trick,everything else it wasn't budging,lots of acetone and tyranny fluid as a rust penetrater.
Your videos are great. I have watched and used them countless times for repairs on my silverado and my wife's yukon. Thanks a tonne from your neighbours to the north.
Really enjoyed the video. A lot of good information, it'll make it easier for me when I replace the hub bearing assembly on my Silverado!! Thnx!👍
very helpful video makes the job easier i was already breaking my head thanks
Great video, it will be a great help when I recommend a repair to my friend who's shop wants to charge $700 for this. Two things though; DON'T use lithium grease to lube the brake pads, use high-temperature grease made for brakes - that's probably why they were sticking. Second, you didn't install the axle nut dust cover.
thanks 1Aauto for the simple and easy to follow video! this was my goto guide for replacing my hub assembly so thank you!
+Corey Verrill Thanks for watching. We carry the replacement part shown in this video on our website. Here is a link to them, if any of our viewers needs to make this repair www.1aauto.com/1A/front-wheel-bearings-and-hubs/Chevy/Silverado1500/1ASHF00197?CZcams&CTA+Comment&XknVcvYIM
Excellent Video. Torque specs and all! Cheers!
Worked great for my 2011 GMC Sierra 1500 SLT 4WD
Just ordered a set of these for my silverado cant wait to put them on.
+Michael Tedford Thanks for checking us out!
Great video, helped me walk through the process with ease.
+outcold963 Thank you! We love empowering our customers and showing how to perform DIY auto repairs with our high-quality auto parts. 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Do you need an alignment after doing this repair?
1:53 you’ve already got the wheel off...
1:55 you’ve got the wheel back on?
Gotta do this tomorrow. Thanks fellas
I noticed you didn't replace the dust cover. Mine got damaged when I removed it. Do I need this cover or is it something it can go without? Watched a lot of vids and yours was the best. Thank you.
You should definitely get a replacement then. The dust cap keep debris out of the bearing
Great step by step video.
Great job! Helped me through the entire thing!
+Bryce Schroeder Thanks for watching, We are glad that this has helped you out. Have a great day! 1aauto.com
Awesome video. Will be attempting this project this weekend. Thank you.
Just had this done on my 2007 Chevy avalanche at a auto shop. Cost me $521.00. Three year warranty on hub assembly. I was fortunate to have a repair shop replace the assembly since I was traveling 🧳, repairs took 1 hour 45 minutes. Sure I paid more than I’d like to have, it was worth it. 😊
This is very similar to the set up my 2007 Chevy Express van 1500 had. Kept looking up Express van videos and none of them quite matched
Awesome video though!! Will be using tomorrow!
Thanks for putting the video up, super informative made wheel bearing replacement more do able.
+Brad Andre Thank you! We love empowering our customers and showing how to perform DIY auto repairs with our high-quality auto parts. 1AAuto.com
Awesome video but did you forget the center cap on axle nut right at the end? You pry it off in the beginning.. Does the hub kit include a new one?
Some of your torque specs mentioned in the video seem different from GM.
GM: Hub flange bolts: 133 ( same)
Front Caliper mounting Bracket bolt, 129 ft lb
Caliper guide pin bolt, 74 ft lb (RPO code JF3)
Axle nut, 177 ft lb
Lug nut 140 ft lb
psshd1
The axle nut gets torqued to the hub manufacturers specifications...
Not the vehicle manufacturer, unless you are buying hubs from the dealer
Came in clutch thank you
So the torx and dust cap aren’t re-installed?
Great video. Forgot axle cover and the little rotor hex screw on install
Super easy. Thanks!
Last step....jack the truck up.😂😂😂
Just kidding, good video.
Really easy to follow really cured my anxiety about doing the job myself after watching this lol 😆 😅. Does this apply for a 2011 2500HD as well? I'd assume yes?! Amazing products and videos! Thanks!! Yall Rock!
So I was just wondering… do you not need to replace the axle nut dust cover on the hub??? Thanks great video.
Great video thanks! I don’t remember you putting the T30 torques bolts back in. Did I miss that or are they optional
Came here for a refresher, where does the T30 Torx come into play? I don't recall having to use any... 🤔
You forgot to put the axle nut cap back on. The axle nut is a 34mm for 2011 and newer, 36 for older. Torque to 184 on a 2013 2500HD
Cap had to go on before the wheel, ask me how I know. I did the same thing as I didn’t have a helper to step the brakes and put the wheel on so I could torque the axle nut. It’s important to have the nut on semi tight before you put the trucks weight on the wheel though, to avoid damaging the bearing.
So last step in this video is to pull the wheel and put the cap back on.
Does removing the pads make the caliper come off easier? Or does it not need to be done? Wouldn't the caliper come off with pads installed? Seems like a couple extra steps if so. Thanks.
I was wondering the same thing...
Love 1aauto videos but i dont believe you put axle nut back on and was needing to know what to torque it to
Awesome video. Thanks! Helped alot!!
So much help thanks!
Thanks for the video about to do my hub wanted to see what I’m getting into you were a lot of help. If one hub goes would you recommend doing the other also while the trucks up on stands and the tools are already out?
Just skipped right over taking off the CV nut. So now reinstalling to use breaks to get that but off.
Thanks. Very easy to understand.
Thank you for watching. Please let us know how the repair comes out! 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
To Loosen Caliber bracket on the driver's side, is it up or down to loosen
Excellent! Thank you!
great job guy's
+Dave Marotto Thanks, glad you liked it! 1aauto.com?CZcams&CTA%20Comment&ATony 866-403-3393
torque spec on lug nuts is 140 guys
bowtieboy572bb what type of grease for the hub flange?
How come in other videos on 07-13 the torque specs differ @1AAuto. For instance the caliper housing on this video is 100ft lbs, and on the video to do upper control arm its 129ft lbs
I noticed you didn't replace the cap over that 36 mm center nut. Is that needed? You didnt mention puttin gthe torx screw back in the rotor either, fwiw... I get that one can live without that.
Hi. Love your how to videos. Just replaced my dads rotors and pads I bought from you guys on his 2008 Silverado easily thanks to your video. I will be ordering a hub and possibly an axle for my 2007 Silverado which needs replacing. You also have a video on replacing the axle/cv joints on this truck. If you are replacing the brakes and hub as well do you still need to remove the shock in order to replace the axle/cv joint assembly you sell? Seems like after removing the hub you can just remove the 6 bolts from the differential and just remove the axle without removing the shock?? Thanks.
This is also the fix for stabiltrac light coming on
Thank you for the comment and for watching! +Jtrivett79
Why isnt the removal of the center nut of the cv shaft apart of the video on or off. What size socket is it and torque? Looked at a lot of comments and no one asked that I could see so that would add confusion in trying to remove it wouldn't?
Good video all the same
Tks
My truck had some noise and what felt like what I would describe as rubbing near the front driver's side wheel. How do you know if this is the problem part?
I have a 3500 gmc sierra 4x4 dually...I cant pull the center nut out...i already broke a brake bar...I have a half inch impact but that's not enough...any suggestions to pull center nut out? Thank you for your video!
You guys are amazing. Thank you so much for all the help you provide thru your videos. You make being a dig mechanic so easy
+Jay13 Rogers Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com
What torque wrench do you recommend using/buying for this job?
Just replace my wheel bearing on my 2012 Silverado, just wanted to let everyone know that you need a 35mm for axle nut, 36mm has to much slop, everything fit perfectly.
Hey Tony. I’m am getting ready to do the job. 35mm is too tight to fit on the axle nut but the 36mm does seem to have too much play. What do you recommend?
What kinda grease for bearing did you use.?
I see there are "HD/Heavy Duty" versions of the bearing hubs. What exactly make those "heavy duty" over standard ones??? Bigger bearing, thicker hub, etc? They all look identical in photos.
+thechosendude You want to check with the retailer to see what they mean by heavy duty. Usually they will accommodate larger wheels and off-road applications if they are listed as a "heavy duty" upgrade. 1aauto.com
What kind of grease did u use on the hub flange??
Why hold rotor with lug nut instead of the t 30 bolt which you didn't mention on reassembly?
Those t30 bolts are hit and miss, they came out easy on my dad's truck, but were a PITA on my truck. His came out easy, so I put his back in, it is used in the factory to keep the rotor in place. On my truck (Michigan) it was rusted, then stripped, then a pain to get out. For that reason, I won't put them back in. The lug nut is an easier method to hold it in place.
+Jamin V Thanks for the feedback!
as a student I really enjoy watching you guys!
What about the torx screw on the rotor? I didn't see that get re-installed. Does that screw have any torque specs?
+Stephen Sweet Thanks for watching! You do not need to reinstall the torx screw, it is just a factory thing that helps prevent the rotors from falling off during the vehicle assembly process.
great video..very helpful.. you guys are awesome and help me save a lot of money
Really good video
Is this the same part on a Tahoe 07 4x4? My hub is making gring noise.
Do you have to remove the top cap from br the master cylinder will you feel the brake fluid before you clap down on the brake to move it back into position so you can put on the new brakes
Very Nicely Done Video ! Thank You.
+Kevin Bordner Thanks for watching Kevin. Here's a link to the replacement wheel bearing assembly that was shown in the video if anyone would like to take a look at them. www.1aauto.com/wheel-bearing-and-hub-assembly-front/i/1ashf00197?CZcams&CTA%20Comment&ATony
Great video. Helped me a lot. Thank you.

Excellent video. Thanks!
So the cap over the spindle nut just disappeared in your video am I missing something
Can I reuse the nuts and bolts or do I need to replace those also?
+@kceynelson As long as they are in good condition, you may feel free to reuse the original hardware.
I'm trying to replace my rear wheel bearings on my 2007 chevy suburban 1500 RWD. Can you direct me to a video for that? I've been searching for a while and most videos just show replacing the front wheel hubs
Thank you for sharing it these videos I learn to do a lotta mechanics to my self on my truck! I like so much your chanel you guy's have a lot for how to ! 👏👏👏👏🖒

Appreciate the video... Replaced my passenger front assembly over the weekend and your vid definitely helped me know what I had to expect... Thank God for extension bars to get torque on a few of the bolts, but a few came off a little too easy too.. Kinda made me nervous about driving it before the install..
+Shawn S Thank you! We love empowering our customers and showing how to perform DIY auto repairs with our high-quality auto parts. 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Just wanted to know if that 36 mm socket is a 12 spline?
35mm/36mm
they do vary on the axle nut size
Do you need alignment afterwards?
