Hey guys, in this video we demonstrated how we removed and replace the front wheel bearings on Honda Odyssey. It takes some serious work but we did not have a press. It is much easier with a press. This will work for many Makes and Models especially front wheel drive cars. Even some rear or 4 wheel drive will use the same concept. Make sure that you use good quality front wheel bearings so you do not have to do the job again in the near future.

Would it help to heat up the hub a bit with a torch and maybe put the new bearing in the freezer for a bit?
Glad you guys are not doing my heart ablation procedure…
Great video, but what holds the hub in from falling out in the road!!!!
wheel bearing press, vice works too
Can I add a word of caution? It is a very bad idea to hit one hammer with another because they are both made with hardened steel. They can shatter and you can end up picking bits shrapnel out of yourself
What if the sound only happens in 1st gear. I have a 2018 430i and when I am stopped or going real slow and the press the gas it vibrates. If I barely press is and go slow it does not vibrate.
Well… it looks pretty damn good for not perfect…
Never hammer a bearing, or a hub into a bearing. If you do, you should make sure that the inner bart of the new bearing is supported. Otherwise you will transfer the hammer impact dirrectly into the bearing balls and dammage it. It wont last nearly as long. Trust me i f'ed up many times
You guys are great! Thanks so much for the helpful videos.
this is why we replace hubs with bearings i dont like this one more lost in time that the cheap new part
These guys don't have bearing puller/pusher, which cost only U$90. Hammering will weaken the components!?
ive never laughed so much when i saw the big homemade lever for the nuts and then the guy holding it up while other hammers bearing out lmao
Don’t you guys have a press???
HI, I own a press and bought a bearing kit,
I pressed the new bearing in using the old outer bearing only pressing on the outer new bearing, went in smoothly and easy,all was lined up accurately,
Place the cir clip in then pressed the hub in` that has the four wheel bolts, only pressing on the middle of the bearing this time that and this went in smoothly, job done,
I spun the hub befor placing it on the car, nice and tight firm it rotated,then I was moving the hub in and out and felt a little bit of movement when I looked at the ABS side I could see small amount of play.
so I spun the hub again still testing it while off the car and it was worse and the movement the center of the bearing race was getting worse the more I wobble and span the hub around,
I had not placed it on the car yet when doing this, should this be happening?the bearing was £16.00 from a company that has got 100 percent rating
or would this need to be put on the drive shaft and torque the big nut up and would that squeeze it snug and stop the play it was having, or as the bearing was a fraction of the price just a piece of shite,
The guy who holds the assembly is making my wrists hurt seeing him take all the hammer force
When they changed from roller bearings wheel bearings to ball bearings they done it to cheat the public. I have never had a roller bearing style wheel bearing wear out. Pretty sad how crooked these companies have become.
You are both awesome mechanics! Thank you for sharing!
@11:34 why do you have to hold it in the air? Would it not just rest on the bolts underneath?
Bearing number
Thank you !
I can't thank you guys enough. You are thorough and fast teachers. Your channel is one of the most valuable resources I've had from the internet for sure
Thank you I have the same car and I also have a wheel bearing I need to change.
I will never listen to anybody who use a Hammer to install a bearing waste of time nothing else!!!
You should have warmed up the bearing housing after cleaning and de-burring, this will enable the bearing to be much easier to assemble since it was frozen, always remember, heat expands, cold contracts..
heat the hub up and freeze the bearing, then that bearing will drop right into it, hardly any hammering needed
