A quick video demonstration of what a bad rear wheel bearing sounds like in a 7th generation Honda Civic and how to replace it. My original wheel bearings have over 400, 000kms on them and they were starting to show signs of wear as my car’s rear end would start howling like crazy between 50 and 80km/h. The entire bearing replacement process can be done with some basic hand tools and usually takes less than 20 minutes per side (assuming you don’t have a bunch of corrosion holding the rear drums onto the hub). I opted to replace BOTH rear bearings in my Civic, which solved the road howling sounds. My drives are MUCH quieter and smoother. I opted to use genuine Honda bearings because of their exceptional quality. When I scrap the car I will probably yank the new bearings and keep them as spares for my other 7th gen Civic ☺.

Nice job man, If" except when the inner race does not come out
Excellent video
Thank you so much for just getting to the point… Wouldn't have ever thought that these would be as easy as they clearly are… I'm still in the process of doing my front hubs and bearings which has now been a two-day project although I don't have a press so it's been a two-day project without a press
great information from novascotia,canada
Good video but if you’re attempting this, the wheel torque spec is 80 lb. ft., not 100!
Thank you so much! One of the bolts snapped and me and my brother had to replace this, and this video helped us TREMENDOUSLY!
This is fit for hond city z lxi model 2000
Have ordered and tried installing hubs from auto zone and they don’t fit on the spindle. Any suggestions on what site I can order these?
excellent content
How much the part cost
Excellent instruction video thanks!
Looks easy . I will soon follow the job also . Thanks
Gotta do this to mine this next week once they come in I already rebuilt the front end besides the spindle and inner tie rod so hopefully these new hubs and new rear drums get rid of the noise in the back
Torque on the lug nuts should be 80 ftlbs
That rusty cap looks so out of place with the new hub 😛
Thanks Bro!!!….. help me a lot…. god bless you!
so there shouldnt be any play on these bearings? (i have no sound..)
Won’t centrifugal force, force the anti seize into the shoes?
What size socket did you used?
Here is my comment you change wheel bearing but i can tell you. You have a flat spot on the tire that why the noise.. bad bearing soung a bit diferent bro i dos same job on my honda has the same noise but was a flat spot check the tire to
