Wheel Bearing Replacement. Learn how to replace a wheel bearing hub assembly. This is a 2007 Mercury Mountaineer, Ford Explorer but the process will be very similar for replacing any wheel bearing hub assembly with an axle running through it. I was quoted over $650 at the stealership to do the job again so save a ton of money and do it yourself and do it properly so it won’t fail again.
Here is the wheel bearing hub assembly I used: http://www.mevotech.com/product/hub-assemblies/

That looks like the CV Joint, Strut, and brakes were all done quite recently. How did they get done without anyone noticing the bearing was bad?
I wonder how much all those tools cost
Lol cheater bar
look at the mirror of the interior I can see he's face. (Looks like we know he's face ;))

Is it just me or does Chris look like Eminem (Marshall Mathers) in the beginning in the rear view mirror?
Hi, im having problem with my 2009 corolla altis that has grinding sound when i drive 40khp and increase the sound when im in 60 to 70 kph, i already shaken the wheel just what you have instructed but there's no play. My question is does it really a bad wheel bearing even if doesnt play? BTW your videos is great and giving us awesome informations.
I see your face
I am gonna try to replace the left front bearing on my 2013 Honda Civic EX but all I can find is just the bearing and not the assembly online. And I wanna avoid needing a press, do they not replace the entire assembly? Any suggestions?
I love your channel Chris. I can't stop watching!
can't fully re-attach the tire before lowering the car?
Well made video. This proves I should outsource all of this mechanical stuff. So much more rewarding to have someone else do it for me. That issue with getting the hub (or whatever it's called) off….that would happen to me every single time. Bet my life on it.
You can just push the cap out and dont have to work the metal ring out. Why easy when complicated eh?
