You don't need a dial, although this guy did overtighten the hub nut and didn't put enough grease inside the hub cap, you can fit these bearings perfectly fine by just tightening them up hand tight then a quarter turn back is sufficient, most mechanics use this method.
Great video awesome how you took 15 minutes to do a four hour job.This is much more doable than the last video I saw where they used at least 4 different specialized tools to do this job including some sort of magnetic metetr that measures play within 1000s of an inch. How does it drive now? Also how did you know where exactly that locking nut needs to go? Lastly you didn't remove the dust shield I didn't think it was necessary but I see everyone do this step.. is that only to clean behind it?
Great job you made it look so easy, I might add your filming is terrific 👍
Awesome job made it look so easy
The bearing needs a dial test indicator set up to ensure the hub is at 0 and running true
I see a lot of diy guys not doing this step... What happens if this is off?
@@Dnasty1 I honestly don't know, maybe a wobble?

there is inner and outer and complete set for sale. is it better to replace everything or i could get away changing only inner or only outter bearing?
Might as well replace both of them while you have it apart
The hub was loosened before the video, as it is quite hard to remove it.
@@john2914 it wasn’t loose. Mine wasn’t hard to come off. You must be up north.
Like these vids bro
Thanks for the love brother
E350 4matic is different, you have to use the puller to seperate the spindle from the bearing.
Is this 4matic
no
4matic is a different procedure, and takes much longer.
Gotta have the wheel off before recording
