Torque axle nut to 215 ft lbs and lugnuts to 90 ft lbs
I demonstrate how to replace a front wheel bearing on a 2013 Hyundai Elantra. On some vehicles you cannot replace a wheel stud without removing the hub from the spindle, as was the case here. You will need a hydraulic press, impact sockets of various sizes, grinding wheel, chisel, hammer, 17 +19mm wrenches, an impact driver and some other basic stuff.

Funny I was wondering about the hammer condom as well.that explains it LOL.
You should use a shop press to remove the old bearing.
There's nothing i hate more than handing money to a Mechanic!
I would almost rather set it on fire….
I love that i have a guy that i can go to, just to do the heavy stuff, like pressing bearings and torching some real nasty stuck bolts.
I do 90% in my driveway, but when it comes to specialty jobs like swapping out bearings, he charges me a very reasonable amount to finish it off.
Plus I always pay in cash, because i believe he pockets the money to fund his Vicodin habit.
Nicely done. I pressed mine out but it is a PIA with this knuckle. Luckily it's a relatively light press fit!!!
Good video but you should really be torqueing the lugs to spec so you don't warp the rotor. Also, the axle nut but for different reasons. Why didn't you press the bearing out with the hydraulic press instead of banging it out with a hammer?
Now I have someone to do this, If I buy the parts. It looks like I'll get new hubs with the bearings. It should save on labor! And why not do the ball joints at the same time.
Size of spindle nut?
deftones in the background is a nice touch.
why do u put a plastic on your hammer?
