but without the tool...? Which is like $700 for the "otc hub grappler", cheaper/easier to but new hubs w/bearings installed which are like $100+ ea ymmv, IMHO or if you have a shop press you may can press them out too?
The nut is made of aluminum and it has tendency of expanding the treads inside it once reused. In other words it may lossen itself later on if reused. Honestly as a mechanic I can tell you can reused once or twice more with no harm. After that it's garbage! Good vid!
@hashnoor6172 I was wondering if I could get away with using them on a second set of wheel bearings so thanks for your reassurance that my wheel won’t fall off along with my rotor 😂😂
The torque is so high maybe they figure it can only take one torque with confidence .Aluminum might have something to do with it. Struts have the same warning I think, but we used to always reuse those nuts.
They’re a Tty (torque to yield) spindle locknut, gonna have problems with the shielded bearing vs sealed…that’s my problem..did rotor assembly on both sides and since they’re not sealed I’ve got to do them again just after a year from contaminated bearings i.e water dirt salt etc etc
Great video!! This is exactly what I am planning. The noise & feel in the steering wheel is slowly getting more noticable. What did you decide when it comes to the one time use bolt ? new sub
Finally some one taking out the wheel bearing out the rotor ... big thanks man for the video

Thanks for the video. Very helpful seeing the actual bearing being replaced.
Super informative! Thank you for the video!
Thanks great video! 👍🏻

@BOSS NESS lol .. of course you can get away with it. Just make sure to use some red tread lock. Did it many times including my own truck.
@@hashnoor6172 alright I’ll pick up some lock tight tomorrow
It’s definitely not an aluminum nut please don’t spread misinformation.

Great video 👍
que chulada de trabajo compadre😊
Great job
Thanks bro for the info
Nice video 👍
Where did you get the wheel bearing and the part# by chance?

Honestly, i reused it.
@@gautorepair very cool. Appreciate it!!
Supposably the bolt is the Teflon lock
Doing my 07 ford f150 front bearing this weekend, what bearing puller are you using? Great video.
Otc hub grappler
Oh, by the way, i have the same ingersol-rand impact driver. It is one bad impactor tool.
this not a 4 wheel drive f-150, just 2 wheel dr.
Funny when you say I’m going to reused lol.
Where did you buy the wheel bearing from ?
Autozone
Try wood on your vice to protect the rotor.
Or rubber like tire tread
What would you do if the spindle was bad how hard are they to change out I have a 2007 F150 2 wheel drive I was told my bearing ate in to the spindle
Replace the entire knuckle
I just find it very strange a truck 2WD has no wheel assembly to replace it so instead you must replace the wheel bearing itself.
That's what I thought but look up brake rotor. It is available as a whole assembly with the bearing.
My 08 Lariats the same way . Found that out when everything was apart . Have to do a bearing swap
You can replace the whole assymbly. Its cheaper but more work to jlreplacecjustvtge bearing
I need that emation
