I hoped i doing same like you cause I has to fix my Avalon 2000 on couple days I got go to working my car, thanks for the video really nice teacher you are
2001 toyota avalon needs the passenger bearing done. Perfect timing i already ordered the part from rock auto. Top bottom play is bearing not ball joint right? I had the ball joint replaced and it's still rattling pretty bad.
Hi Billy, Most likely, it is the bearing, but you can lift it and take off the wheel and wiggle it to know for sure. Best of luck to you! I did the passenger side on this car about two or 3 years ago and I guess I should’ve done this one too back then.
For the life of me I can not get this damn snap ring off one side moves and the other is seized I try using penetrating fluid a pry bar not thing I hit it with a punch and it was moving but it dosent want to lift up
Yes, but the Honda bearings are sometimes magnetic on one side so you need to make sure it’s installed with the correct side of the bearing. Similar process though… Take care, -Dan
The part when you remove the bearing needs to slow down a hair just to make sure I have everything in the correct position and order. When you say, “ I’ve got it all set up” goes by too fast for my old brain. Also, I’m struggling getting the bearing to go in straight. I’ll try again.
Damn the processes was much simpler on my cobalt, just remove axle nut and caliper and hammer the shit out of the wheel hub since the bearing is already in it just swap part and boom good to go
Go to to pick n pull, find an assembly that's tight...and just swap the whole assembly...$50. some cars in the yard had new bearings installed before it "died". Remember Sienna and Avalon have the same part 😉 save yourself a lot of time and effort
GREAT video well instructions

what size was the socket you used to take off the hub connected to the cv axle
Great video!
At 16:45, that looks more like Loctite than anti-seize. You also mention that its purpose is to prevent the caliper bolts from backing off.
You are correct, it was thread locker, I was probably pretty tired and said it wrong…

1:11 our star is not the main character in this video, RotorRemover9000😊
@@landshass2849 Yes, I forgot to mention it by name 😁
So in order to “rent the tool” I should buy it and return it?
They usually have you put down a deposit close to the amount of the tool, and they fully refund it when you return the tool.
Nice video!
Oh my God! WOW!

What size middle bolt
If you’re referring to the axle nut, it’s 30mm. Sorry I didn’t mention that in the video.
Thx
Nice well explained .from fresno California

Can you buy a whole new self-contained unit and not reuse the hub
Yes. A little more expensive but much easier imo
Are you kidding me?!
Nope...But it wasn't too bad. Just not the kind of thing you want to do in a parking lot if you can avoid it...
Aren't you damaging rotor smashing it with a Hammer? Are you replacing rotors as well.jesus christ man
