In this video I remove and replace the wheel hub assembly on a GMC Sierra Z71 (Silverado). I removed the wheel hub assembly because of a broken wheel speed sensor that was causing unwanted ABS under 5 mph. I tried to hammer the wheel hub out, but it wouldn’t budge. So I decided to get smart and used a bolt and some physics to remove the stuck wheel hub.

If you notice, the new wheel hub came with a threaded hole built in. That way you can remove the hub without hammering out a lug. Cave man hammer not included…or needed.
Omg ive been at this for 2 days now because first the lat bolt holding the hub on was siezed and would not come off right away and now the whole hub itself will not come off any tips to get the seized bearing housing off??
dumbass for using 12 point wrenches on torqued and rusted bolts.
I learned the hard way. Never use a 16 point socket. Stick to 6 or 8 max
Why is it always a claw hammer?
Awesome job, I did my wheel hub my self too
You could of remove the two big bolts and got the caliper and pads all in one instead of 4 bolts it's only 2 bolts
Just replaced my hubs today, mine were seized so I broke out the air hammer
My cv axle is jammed tight in the bearing, beat the hell out of it with no luck
Good video!!! I liked how you showed using a bolt to help lose the assembly. I also liked see the torque specks. Thank You!
great video….helped me

I literally just finished replacing my front right hub assembly on my 2004 GMC Sierra 1500 about 5 minutes ago. I had some movement in the bearing when you rocked up and down or side to side (could hear it knocking). Double confirmed by taking the wheel off and shaking directly up and down while grabbing the studs with your hand. Triple confirmed by a new and increasingly loud humming coming from the right front side.
I replaced the hub assembly with a brand new SKF unit, all torqued to spec and I have now come to find I have received a bad bearing. Worse now than it was before lol
Great vid! My 2cents is to clean and lube the inner portion of the steering knuckle and o ring thats in there.
AM GETTING READY TO DO THIS TYPE OF WORK ON MY 2012 SRX, BUT I GOT AN AIR GUN, NICE SOCKETS KIT, BREAKING BAR, AND TORQUE WRENCH GOING…READY TO MAKE IT WORK. NICE VIDEO, ESPECIALLY THE BONUS CLIPS…THAT'S WHAT I CALL INGENUITY…LOL
