Thank you! I was able to successfully pull the knuckle off. I could not get the retaining ring off for anything. I'm talking PB blaster, air chisel, drill, etc. I decided at this point to take the whole knuckle to a shop and let them deal with it before I started to destroy the knuckle. It cost more than I wanted, but they ended up removing the retaining ring, separating the old hub and bearing and repressing the new one. He said it was the toughest ring he ever removed. Thanks for saving me a ton of money on everything else though. Next time I may just go to a scrap yard and buy the whole knuckle, hub and bearing assembly together from an '06.

So the wheel won't fall off on these kind of bearing setups?

Thanks for the video! Is this for the Accent as well?

I am just replacing a stud on my Elantra. I pushed out the hub just enough to slide the new stud into the hole without the dust shield getting in the way, but otherwise it is still on the knuckle. Can I just hammer the hub back in until the CV threads are exposed, and then use the pressure of the hub nut to press it the rest of the way? Or do I need to pull the hub out?

Hope you removed the grease on the rotors from your hands before you were done, other then that great job. I like using a press, less work….

I'm doing bearings on a newer Elantra but the steps are similar. You gave some useful details that others didn't, saved me some trouble. Thanks for posting.

I came here to see how to change a wheel bearing and left flabbergasted by the lack of rust. Are you sure it is a 13 years old Hyundai?

Trying to find a video for 2001 Tiburon. This looks more complex than the others I've watched regarding suspension elements. Tie rod & control arm.. Is this job nearly identical to my Tib?
