    Nice whip!
    I just replaced my hub/wheel bearing on the same wheel. (Same car)
    I had to disconnect the brake line to move the shroud to get a grinder in the right position to get at the old inner bearing race off.
    Now it's quiet and smooth.
    I noticed that it is common for it to freeze onto the spindle.
    I also noted that it is common for the race to pit at the bottom and that was causing the bearing to roar.
    Don't believe the videos out there that say it's easy.
    That inner race is a nightmare.

      Oh yeah man that sounds like a royal pain. Luckily my hubs are still tight somehow after 190k miles. I'll end up changing them when I do the 5 lug conversion I have planned, but glad you got her figured out! Thanks for watching bro

      Thanks bro!
      Rotors and calipers look much better in my opinion and are easier to service but the increase in performance will probably be minimal. Drums work good when they're adjusted good. Your ex has all the parts you'd need? Then I'd go for it! The main thing for me is cost. Might want to swap over the proportioning valve and master cylinder too. Your car have ABS?

    What size are your rims?

      17x8 or something like that. Not my end goal wheels but they work for now

    I put at least two lug nuts on to keep the drum flush on the hub, because you can get inaccurate adjustment.

    • @ThatAccordGuy

      Yeah that is a good idea. it did take some time for me to get it to sit flush for an accurate test. Using lugs would be easier but not sure mine are long enough to thread on without wheels. Thanks for the tip!

      Yeah man drums are overall a pain. Calipers are the way to go.
