Hey guys i want to replace oone of my rear wheel bearings. Is there any instructions on how to do it anywhere? Can you tell me how to do if you have done it before? thanks

I pulled the hub/spindle and took it the the dealer to press the old one out and press a new one in. 1/2 hr labour.

I went to go my wheel bearing today and then I got told to leave the shop for some stupid reason. I will have pics for you tommorrow though. Damn I wanted to get it done today but some people that are higher https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683358.gif than you can me an ass sometimes.

I finished the wheel bearing with a success!! Now I don't have to worry about that annoying sound when going around corners.

It took me about 2 hours to do. I ran into a litte problen. were when I pressed the old bearing out the inner half stuck to the hub. I made it come off with a vise and a puller. So I pressed everything back together and mounted everything back on the car and now I am with no worries. I will post pics soon.
