GM - Rear Wheel Bearing / Hub Assembly
Vložit
- čas přidán 4. 06. 2017
- Come along with Eric O. at the SMA shop as he goes through the procedure of changing a rear hub assembly / wheel bearing on a 2005 Buick Lacrosse. This vehicle has an ABS speed sensor built into the hub but some however do not. This is a pretty standard procedure for many makes and models of GM vehicles.

I owned and operated my own garage for 10 years, recently sold it and I still watch SMA. My wife says why are you watching that, you already know that, I said you can always learn something. Great channel Eric.
Afirm, Every days a school day
Mr. O your videos have personally saved me over $100 when I watched how to replace the ignition switch on a Chevy Blazer.
I don't know what I like more, your liberal use of brake clean, or the sound effect when you show us the can.
Keep the great videos coming. I thoroughly enjoy each and every one.

How could anyone dislike this video? Perfectly straightforward and informative...what's not to like? Jeez.
Eric O... Best mechanic on CZcams and he's cranking out a video almost every day.
Trying my best to keep the people happy
@@SouthMainAuto And doing a great job. Too bad I live so far away. (Western Canada) As a retired mechanic, I'd love to 'chew the fat' . I so respect your skills and attitude!
Morning coffie, donut...and another episode of SMA - life is b-e-a-utiful :)
Break Clean is magical liquid that deserves to be celebrated, which Eric "O" does!
Thanks SMA! I'm doing my rear bearing hubs this week (great vacation) on my 2000 Grand Prix. Hopefully it's similar enough.
You've also helped me with replacing the water pump on the same car after seeing your video for GM water pump replacement. Which is the first video I watched of SMA and got hooked almost 5 years ago!
*I'm convinced this man never sleeps. Thanks for another video sir!*
Thanks Donny! Trying to make CZcams Great Again!
President Donald Trump hi
South Main Auto Repair video is Big League.
Love it when the inbox says SMA video posted. Love it!
Great video,very helpful, I struggled with removing a rear bearing on my 05 Grand Am last night and failed.Today I'll attack it with the impact as you did. Thanks for this helpful tutorial, its going to make my day go a lot easier.
Very instructive and done at a pace that suits me. You are very meticulous which I find a rare quality nowadays. Keep it up.
This guy is good, but you should watch some of the Chris Fix videos, you also be amused....and learn a few tricks here and there....
You should have a talk show. You are just entertaining to watch. Great video as always.
I like the saying "If I can do it you can do it" but the truth is I cant do it! The videos are awesome though. They make it so I can do more.
Awesome!!! Thanks a billion for making & posting!!!
Well done Eric. I like the classic reach-around ratchet.
New to your channel, awesome videos! I can't get over the number of hub bearings you have to change. I live in western Canada, it is rare to have a hub bearing go out...mind you, we don't near have the corrosion issues you guys do. I have a 2007 Dodge Ram 1500 with 187500 miles, factory hub bearings. Anyway, again really enjoy your videos!
Just had to replace an 09 acadia's rear wheel bearing a couple days ago. No shop or fancy tools, just an air uga duga and ping pinger. It refused to give up the ghost, and was such a painful experience. And to top it off, had the pleasure of the e brake cable and pads to have fun with. 10/10 experience. ^.^
Excellent. Your one liners crack me up and make my wife wonder what I'm watching.
Right?! 🤣
Sure enjoy your explaining what your doing. Very informative and you talk like we are right there with you. Great Job as usual
Good timing Eric O. right before I heading off to work. Big Nasty "Astro 4980" is on beast mode yet again. A + informative content, no coffee yet for me but soon. Thanks for the video
SMA video on the cruise keeping me sane!
Haha I try my best sir
This video is a life saver! I have a blue 2005 lacrosse that has a bad wheel bearing on that side! This will be my go to video for when i do it myself, thank you so much!
After watching many of your videos I know one thing for absolute certain. I am sure glad I live in Texas where corrosion isn't a problem like it is up North, screw salted roads every damn year.
Hey, Eric, I like your videos when you're diagnosing problems It helps me think of ways I can find problems.
Anybody can turn a wrench and replace parts that why we have so many parts changers.
You are awesome....I've learned so much from your vids. I watch your vids all the time..Your delivery/demeanor is the best....Please keep up the great work....Loving it
Mr O,and brake cleaner,on a Monday,the week is looking up!!!
More to come this week to and I think it gets even better!
I love watching Big Nasty get the job done. someone should make a Big Nasty montage.
Thanks so much for this video. Being from upstate NY the videos I watched on how to replace a rear hub all showed the hub coming out no problem. Your trick to hammer it till it spins did the trick on my rear 2014 upstate impala limited. I would have been stuck without this video.
Perfect timing. My 2005 Malibu started making rear bearing noises last week. Will try your impact hammer trick to remove them.
Wow Eric you are up early in the morning didn't know the sun comes up so early I'm in the same time zone its dark here thanks for the chime 😀
You are a video uploading machine! Another great one. Well done Eric!
No time to sleep Mike! The people are demanding their vidoes man so go get busy!
Good video, when the hub fell out I thought "this is going too easy, similar bad is coming" I've never tried rotating the bearing ask like that but that'll be normal now, thanks.
I LIKE BIG NASTY! Great way to loosen the hub assembly! And of course......"Torque To Spec!"
Better getting "never seize " on yourself than Blood! It doesn't hurt to think of the next guy either ; as your current videos seem to imply. Am glad to see you wearing the necessary PPE.
thank you for the channel Mr.O just made a big purchase from your store and will be making more soon
Eric O, excellent video. You are great guy as you listen to your subscribers what they ask or comment. That's why you're popular guy! you definitely deserve over a million subscribers.
one thing I like to point out that,
you remembered things when your subscriber asked : - safety glasses, ear protection. awesome!!! we want you around for years to come! cuz us subscribers love every video you put out!! :)
I recently did the rear brake job on Toyota Camry, tough, tough job. brake shoes AND brake pads as well. those were so tiny, hell of a fiddle job! Ugh!
loved the dramatic entrance of the brake clean at 12:44! 🖒
Just got the 216QL in from Amazon. Haven't had time to use it. "Big Nasty" will be here next week. 😱
Love this short and to the point video. On a side note, Mr O is only a few uploads away from 400 videos. Eric you should change the channel name to South Main Film Studios ! 😎
Great video Eric. Very informative. Thanks for sharing
That music when that brake can shows up LOL
Eric thanks for the video...you are a true professional and entertaining to watch.
Fun fact about the Buick Lacrosse. Here in Canada, they had to call it the Buick Allure....because LACROSSE in French translates
to" " self gratification" So GM produced two sets of literature and all those different emblems to keep from offending our French brothers.
Even funnier though was that later post 2009 they sell the LACROSSE in Canada. Go figure.
Lol you made that look easy. Every days a school day, first time I’ve seen the air chisel used in this way..... cracking ( no pun intended ) many thanks
Never seize never seizes to amaze me :)
Good real world demonstration of the advantage of using it. An excellent test environment, the northeast....
Absolutely cool. Keep em coming
Great job Eric!
Eric, i know this R&R of rear wheel bearing hub was from a while ago
but i wonder did you torq the mounting hub bearing bolts to spec? i may have missed that?
maybe your impact drive has an adjustable torq range??
Top work, no hamburger face, no eggs in a basket, but a squirt of the good stuff, sat watching in the rainy UK 40mph winds , eating my evening meal at 7.30 in the evening glass of red, and this, my idea of a great start to an evening, Keep it up Eric O its all good. Dave
Fish and chips i hope :D
South Main Auto Repair absolutely yes! if I still lived in England. I would be having fish and chips and beer draft and my smokes and big screen TV with SMA at the Pub. oh yeah :)
Not this time, that is normally enjoyed with a cup of tea old boy, also chip butties, now you got me hungry again
Dave Wade hahaha, and me too!!! haha
Thanks for this video, it saved me a lot of heartache!
Another thorough job. Nice.
Rainman ray and eric o are both doing the brake clean thadda sound lol good one eric i know things aren't as easy as in florida
You remind me of a friend I had growing up! Very cool to see... Thx!
Great video! I love your commentary. :D
Another great video Eric O....and now even the President is watching !!!! :-)
Who can possibly dislike these vids? Bunch of haters, probably can't even change a tire...if you dont like this stuff go watch Discovery Channel "mechanic" shows. Keep those vids rolling Eric. Kudos for the hard work you put into your video production alongside your REAL mechanic work!
Yeah it is ok, always less than 1% of the thumbs ups :)
"Step 1 - remove the tire" , step 2 - Remove the wheel as well ;-) Only kidding Eric, these sort of videos are great - especially helping with the tricks to remove things that have welded themselves together with corrosion.
Could be an ad campaign. Eric O covered in never seize, captioned "Never Seize Never Leaves"
Glad to see you are still using all German torque specs, gudentite.
Well that's my next 16 minutes sorted then 👍🏼
Eric...PLEASE ...always wear your hearing protection whenever you use those air tools. AND wear a dust mask when working with grinders/sanders and around brakes. Believe me...you DON'T want to end up with Tinnitus or lung problems. I speak from experience...do it for Vanessa and the kids. Oh yeah...great video as usual!
Happens to some people, doesnt with others. My grandfather, died in his 50s. Hole in his heart (native american) and lungs were blackened with shop dust/paint etc.
A friend of mine decided to try out welding in his early 30s, he didnt wear a mask. 1 of his eyes are seeing blurry, permanently now. (He closed his eyes, turned his head to tack, light went through his closed eyelid, on the side facing the weld)
@@DarkLinkAD Your friend should visit the local "tech school" and tell his story to the new folks. Sorry for his loss.
@@DarkLinkAD Where's your example of the "doesn't" with others?
@@williamhoudersheldt7076 I think most of CZcams has plenty of anecdotal evidence for those not affected.
Eric when you were using the die grinders I thought you were a dentist for a minute.
Thanks a lot for the video.. just saved me 450 at the shop... basically if you can change brakes you can change these Gm hubs
great video I have an 07 that I need to do the same thing. Looks pretty easy. Thanks for the video
WELCOME BACK SMA
Excellent! Can you show us how clean the inside surface where the new hub seats has to be next time? The outside surface can be seen pretty good, it's just the inside.
"pulled out too soon" LOL! I've never had that problem.
The instructions on my 2011 SRX said to remove the ABS sensor too, but just using my own sense and checking with some measurement I've confirmed that you don't need to at least on that one, it sits right behind the reluctance ring, and won't interfere or be harmed by a wheel hub assembly replacement.
awesome job!!!
keep up the good work you are a inspiration keep the good videos coming
I love Regals. Ive got a 03 LS. It came with the grand touring package. Full leather, 16 in aluminum wheels, rear spoiler. Gonna drive it til it wont go no more.
It not really the upper intake manifold that leaks coolant. It's the lower intake manifold gaskets which used a nylon gasket carrier (which is dissolved by Dexcool) that causes the leak. Replace with either the Delco or Fel-Pro lower intake manifold gaskets which have an aluminum carrier design and those fix this problem. The plastic upper intake manifold of the original Series II design had problems with the EGR passage melting. That caused a leak as well. ATP makes a good replacement plastic upper intake manifold.
Could have played some "ebony ivory" or "black or white" with them gloves!! Another great video thank you sir!
"pulled out too soon" Eric O. 2017
Rather doubtful as he has three children.
@@satamanschmidt3428 that's why he doesn't have 4
This has been helpful. It will be easier than doing front bearing on my allure
Good video Eric O , I have been watching your videos since you have been on You tube , and would like to say thank you. But the anticipation on your little red project car is killing me, when are we going to see some videos on it. And I know your a busy man with customers cars but was just wondering and keep up the good work brother, you would make a killing and love it down here in Tucson Arizona, no rust and things just fall off in your hands when unbolted. :)
I've been telling him what you just said for years. The Red Honda will give us some good videos but how about, as Prince would have said: a "Little Red Corvette. baby you're much too fast.
Hahaha, when you were cookie wheeling that crap off the back of the rotor I know you were gonna say cadi-wompus!!!
Great job again like always
Good job Mr O
Let's see: Loaded for bear - two antibiotics, four painkillers, lack of sleep, can only take hot or cold beverages, a week off from work, pain so bad that a broken foot suffered 12 years ago would be preferable - Tonsillitis, yep, but South Main makes it much more bearable and somehow puts a smile in my face.
Gosh I hope that is not true :/ Yikes!
Yep, it unfortunately true - In one 24 hour sequence, went to my Physician and the ER, the latter lancing the daylights out of the swollen tonsil. But South Main always give me an anticipation like opening a VERY large box of assorted chocolates and choosing and picking the piece and taking the first bite, knowing that is going to be good and never a disappointment.
Get those suckers taken out. As you get older, the bouts are hard on the heart. And they don't get any better.
Great video, just curious, after you buffed the crud off the opening for the bearing assy. why didn't you clean it off with breakclean
You do a wonderful job on your video and you have a good personality for it. When reinstalling the wheel bearing hub assembly would you see anything wrong with using high temp wheel bearing grease instead of Fluid film on the wheel bearing bracket? This would keep it from corroding and make it easy to remove the wheel bearing assembly in the future if needed. Thanks.
Hey Eric O. Great videos! Have you ever done a rear axle pinion seal on a 2004 Jeep Liberty? Everyone has convinced me that I can mess up the pre-load on the pinion and not to touch it. Yet it had splattered gear oil all over the place! Thanks
Watching Eric clean out that knuckle sounded/looked the dentist picking at my teeth. Lot's of rotary air tools and a reasonable amount of picking out schmoo with a pointy-ended device.
8:46 - WHAT'S THAT RATTLE? Oooooooh yaaaaaaaa .....THE GOOD STUFF! Fluid Film.
Running through withdrawl after the krown video.
We've got the President, Big Nasty, AND Wearever Gold in the comments section now! :D
Miracles never cease - a GM component designed with the tech in mind! Amazing!!
Boy, does Big Nasty make these jobs easy or what!?! Best invention EVER. :)
Thank you for the teaching south main auto 🚗 God bless you🙏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Also, rust and corrosion are interchangeable. Rust just refers to iron oxide, which has the brown/copper color we all know and love. Other metals like Zinc and aluminum corrode with a whitish buildup. All oxidization causes an expansion effect which locks shit together, so it all sucks. Iron metals are porous enough though that the rust can just go through the whole piece over time. Aluminum and zinc corrode at a basically negligible rate after they get their initial coat of patina.
Just wondering Eric what brand of fluid film is that, that you use?
I don't know if my local part store
carries that... want to pick some up somewhere.
Eric O......Great job....
eric i'm surprised nobody pick up on the one thing you didn't do..But i'll let them figure it out on there own ... not going to say .thanks for the vids bud
Great Job! Very Professional and experienced 👏🏾 👌 keep up the good/great work bro😊
as always good content thanks for going to the trouble to make these videos
Thanks for doing this video it really helped me 😊
Muy buen video good video muy bien explicado
Hi , nice informative information about rear axels hubs, but I have a little dumb question.
Do you work on Buick rendezvous ? More perfect the rear upper hub bushing , how to replace it without a torch?
Thanks
As good as always!
Great video, hands on I love it!!! Please keep those hands dirty!!! Your the best!!
Eric I have a 2001 Olds Alero , replacing the rear hub and bearing assemble and not sure on the torque on the 4 x 13" bolts to hold the hub on.. thinking 65 ft-lb..
Thanks for the video.
Nice bird song in the background!
Yo eric I know you have 2 work lights that there almost the same which 1 of those do you prefer better cause I'm looking to purchase 1 I respect your opinion and thanks for all the great work you do
What is the part number for the long flex head ratchets you used, I've never seen a 3/8 flex head ratchet that long
