Watched your video and replaced my left and right bearings. By no means am I a mechanic but followed you to a tee and not one issue. Thank you! Feels great doing something like that yourself!!!
Completed the job in just over an hour, great video, well explained.
Great tip regarding the splines, Mike! Some people may zip through this repair but if they don’t pay attention to the details it’ll be a painful learning experience. You are spot on, as always!
Hey Dave, thanks for watching! Taking things back apart is never fun!

Great video for DIY-ers doing it in their driveway! 👍
Hey Nick, thanks for watching! That was kinda the goal here. There's not much special to these bearings. Chances are tech's don't really need a video on how to replace them so we took the DIY approach. That's why I didn't use any power tools too.
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
Very well done and descriptive video. Thank you and great job.
Hey Shane,
Glad you enjoyed it!
You the man. Thanks for posting!!!
Hey Corey,
Thanks for watching and reaching out!!

Thank you!
thank u its so good video
Thanks for watching Omar!

Nice job, really explained well, especially like the fact that you mentioned torque specs along with tools needed to complete the job, and safely tips. I just had mine diagnosed to confirm what I felt was wrong by a tire shop, i immediately went to parts shop, they had the two hub bearings in stock and I was able to purchase them on my friends acct., paid cash n saved half of what the tire store wanted, over $1000.00 for parts plus $300.00 labor and got them for right at $510.00 plus me doing the labor thus saving $800.00 plus any other tax’s the shop wanted to charge me. Again much thanks ! 💯👍
Great video Mike. I replaced the bolts on an old Explorer once. They were wierd narrow shank bolts and Ford got 15 bucks each for them. I think that's why Ford says you should replace them. $$$$😁
Hey Rick, thanks for watching! Yeh, you might be right about that. Sometimes the hardware costs almost as much as the parts.

Hey Nick, thanks for watching bud!

Nice job... the driveway setup made it look more like a DIY job, so very close to how I'd be doing it. :)
Personally, I'd replace both bearings. They probably have the same lifespan, so the right side will fail soon.
Hey Johnny, thanks for watchin'. Yeh, that's what I was kinda going for. Replacing both at the same time isn't a bad idea at all!
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
Thanks Mike, always enjoy your videos
Hey Randir, thanks for watching!
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
100 dollars and hour add up quickly having it done a mechanic shop so thanks for your demonstration.
Yes Mike, it certainly does! This isn't too bad of a driveway job if you have some tools and some time :)
~Mike
Hey Mike,
You're welcome!
Thanks for checking out the video!

Good job Mike. Not as much rust as South Main Auto in upstate New York, but you do have to be careful not to snap off bolt heads. Hopefully the 4x4 IWE worked ok.
Hey Mike, thanks for watching! Yeh, this one wasn't too bad considering that the truck spends it's life outside. IWE/4WD worked great following the repair.
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
@@GoTechTrainingcouldn’t tell, but is this the 4x4 in the video?
@@gimmetaco2037no is a front wheel drive truck
Gracias
Thanks for watching Noah!

I think most mechanics re-use the same bearing bolts if they don't come with the bearing. And loctite is a must.
Hey, thanks for watching! Yeh, I think so too.
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
Tried this on my truck... didn't go well for me. I ordered a MEVOTECH TXF40302 off Rockauto. The part looks amazing and came with everything I needed. However... when I put it together, it made a grinding noise like gears barely touching each other. The old part doesn't make that sound and the 4wd engages and disengages just fine. No noise while 4wd engaged. When I pulled a vacuum on the 4wd actuator, it holds vacuum well and disengages the axle. But the gears just barely touch and make a grinding noise. Bad actuator? or bad new part (gear face too long?)?
Should vacuum be applied to the IWE when reinstalling the hub?
Do you have to change out the hub assembly also.
Thank you for the video....I will be changing the wheel bearing hub assembly on my 2013 Fx4. I was just wondering if you would happen to have the part number for the metal cap that seals the shaft nut.
Hey Amrik, thanks for watching! Here's the link to our website that lists the parts we used. gotech.com/how-to/replace/replace-2011-2014-ford-f150-front-wheel-bearing

Another tip my axil pin did not come out enough to put the 15mm nut on it. So tap and shake until the nut fits on. Then leave dust cover off and drive around < 40mph and it came out that rest of the way. tighten up nut remove tire and put dust cap on.
What type grease did you use
Do you have a video for the 10th generation honda Civic?
What happened if over tightened the axle nut? I think i broke the bearing on the axle cause my driver side axle is moving
does this work for the rear also?
No grease on the spindle and needle bearings?
What’s weird is my wheel bearing doesn’t have the locking nut that u have to take off in the beginning is that normal?
tommmmmm!!!!!! to tom-tom, tom-tommmm good intro music
Hey Carl, glad you enjoyed it ;)
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
why is 2010 not included? just wondering if there was something different
I always say that if bolts or anything is supposed to be replaced with any repair, how come the bolts are not supplied with the part?
That's a great point Carl!
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
I'd like to add that the remaining wheels should be blocked off from roling away. Especially if its on a slope.
Hey Blocki, not a bad idea at all!
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
Are 2wd & 4wd hubs interchangeable? Can’t find 2wd hubs anywhere for the 05 f150
No. 2wd is a hair smaller. I just spent $260 for 2wd one today.
Nice job Mike. Little bit of a pita in the driveway isn't it?
Hey man, thanks for watching! I mean, sure, it's easier and faster on the hoist with power tools but in this case I wanted to show that it's a DIY friendly job.
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
Does Ford want those hub bolts replaced because they are "torque to yield," types? That is, they stretch when torqued properly?
Hey Mark, thanks for watching! Usually when I see torque to yield bolts they have a ft lb torque value followed by a set amount of degrees. These did not, making me think they are not TTY.
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
I replaced the wheel hub and the abs light turned off initially but then came back on
Why don't you use the studio to do that job where you have a lift?
Just setting the scene for our viewers who don't have one ;)
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
MY F150 IA NOT 4 WD. IS THE PROCESS THE SAME
Hi Addison,
The process should be similar, you just don't have to worry about the CV axle and IWE actuator
Ryan Wilsing, Technical Instructor
WOW look at those control arms, they're petrified!!! 🧐😂
Hey hey Nick! Good ol' rust belt my friend!
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
Mine is just spinning hard o can figure out if I need a new one or not
Hi, when you say spinning hard, what do you mean? Like its seized up or are you trying to spin it by hand with the axle shaft installed still?
~Mike
@@GoTechTraining so one of my front tires when the whole front is jack in the air spins a least one 360 if I spin it and let go the other spins harder but spins can't figure out if it's the caliper or hub
If it was always that easy up north!!! lol!!!
Hey Erikkirby1, this is a Wisconsin truck. Sits outside everyday of its life! Seriously, they don't pop out too hard on these because it's a sealed knuckle essentially.
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
@@GoTechTraining living in Quebec Canada with our weather we usually have to air hammer those out, ending up cracking the vaccum actuators or loosing vaccum seal between the actuators and the spindle...
Woah for real!? How do you ever get Edge/Explorer rear bearings out?! haha!
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
@@GoTechTraining cut a stud off of the hub an put a screw in with a nut behind... it acts like a puller ;) in pushes on the knuckle
Eric O did a video showing that. I haven't needed to do it yet but I will try it when the need arises. It's inevitable haha!
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
it's a very small nut for such a big truck
Yeh it is...but the spline point is on the back side with the IWE. Unique set up for axle to hub.
Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
This job is not a 1 hour job It takes the whole weekend: router sticks, bolts sticks, hub sticks. I had to walk to Autozone for stuff to help. If it's your only mode of travel plan plan and practice. Review this very good video and get the tool list.
Gotta learn how to wrench better, did both sides in my driveway along with brake pads and rotors in under 2 hours. Trucks got 300,000km in the rust belt. Heat is your friend btw, wouldn’t be able to do it without it. Don’t even have the pull the tie rod end either.
My local dealer wants to charge me $2000 to replace the rear end bearings on my 2013 F-150-that I have had serviced regularly every 5,000 miles since new! and not once did anyone mention they don't check rear end lube, bearing wear or that I needed to have it done! So stuck with $2,000 bill for what should have been caught years ago
Change it yourself. It’s so easy.
This was not bearing, it was hub assembly install...
THIRD!!!
Getting in on that comment section early!

Mike Becker, Senior Instructor
A lot of salt...
