the fronts aren't that hard, i did it the mazdatrix way. Travisty, have you had problems with the hub becoming loose? I keep on having to tighten down the spindle nut to reseat the hub because after a week of driving it gets loose again. I"ve tried tightening it a bit too much and abit too little and the hub still doesn't want to stay tight on the spindle.
The rears are easy? i thought they were hard, u used a press for the rears? |
I seem to remember the bearings being kind of expensive as well

My rear wheel bearings have over 450k original miles on them.
On the other hand the front wheel bearings have been swapped out twice in that same time. C |
I am interested in this because I have my rear hub off to remove the ABS stuff for a friend. How do you remove the rear hub from the carrier without the SST's? I priced those and it would be about $150 for all 3. Do you just use a press? Is there a certain size nut to press it out with? Will you ruin things if you press it apart?
Thanks. |
gahd, having bad wheel bearings is such a bitch! my 85 CRX has one gone now and that **** is annoying the hell outta me. i can hear it from like 35mph on. my corolla had bearings so bad i could jack the car up and move the left front back and forth about an inch and a half with all the lug nuts and everything tight- dont let it get that far!!! i had to replace the whole spindle.
