    Hey guys, in this video we demonstrated how we removed and replace the front wheel bearings on Honda Odyssey. It takes some serious work but we did not have a press. It is much easier with a press. This will work for many Makes and Models especially front wheel drive cars. Even some rear or 4 wheel drive will use the same concept. Make sure that you use good quality front wheel bearings so you do not have to do the job again in the near future.

    As an experienced mechanic I admire those guys. Never mind if that bearing could have been handled better. They did very well as that it was “doing so much with so little”. Imagine what they could do to a car in a well equipped workshop. Well done.

  • @Forevergod17
    @Forevergod17 4 года назад +199

    For anyone doing this themselves please make sure you put it in the right way. The bearing comes with a plastic cover protecting the magnetic strip for the ABS( the ABS is usually a brown or black plastic ring on the one side. The non ABS side is just metal and usually has the brand on it). The ABS side needs to face towards the car otherwise your abs won't work! Also please do not hit the bearing with a hammer use a vice and the old bearing to push it in or use the old bearing on top of the old one and hit the outer ring of the old bearing with a hammer if you must. When you attach the hub also make sure that you use the old bearing to bush a force back from the other side otherwise you risk damaging the bearing. I hope my mistakes pay off for someone.

      Nice video about replacing the bearing. Thanks for your time and clear explanation. Just to guys know some forgotten things to keep the new bearing safe, you have to use a bush on outer ring of the bearing and place the big hammer head on the bush instead of hitting unevenly around the bearing. When you insert the wheel rod, support bush must be at the bottom to take the impact otherwise pain will be on bearing rollers and the damage will be to the new bearing.

Hats off to these guys for having the guts to show how to do it without the wallet to buy a tool that'll sit around collecting dust for a decade.

  • @richarddesimone960
    @richarddesimone960 Год назад +11

    Hello, your bearing surfaces should be completely dry when installing. The oil you are applying will eventually cause it to slip inside the hub or vise versa, i learned this the hard way. Please dont make the same mistakes. INSTALL YOUR BEARINGS DRY!
    Side note. Do not hit your bearing in with a hammer. You are rolling the edges and seperating the glue from the ruberseal holding the bearings inside the track this is making small holes for sand and moisture to accumulate in... use a press and bearing press install tool kit.
    This will work for a few years. But be prepaired to do it again after all the shock caused to the bearing by banging and tapping..

It took me 3 hours start to finish, 45 mins just to get the piece of the bearing off of the spindle. I use a combination of torch, pullers, and eventually cut it with the wheel. I couldn't imagine tackling this job with hammers. Hats off for getting this done so quickly with basic tools. I feel useless now.

    Great video guys! For you young guys it's probably OK to use your buddy as a workbench, but at my age I put the wheel assemble on wooden blocks to beat out the bearing races! 🤣Also, half the time I've scored/chiseled the inner race from the spindle I ended up damaging the spindle. You can get a new spindle for most cars for around $30, so my advice is before starting the job buy a spare in case you need it. If you don't, you can always send it back, but I would never put a damaged spindle back in a car. Finally, look into buying the whole wheel hub assemble new. I know it costs a lot more (around $250) but everything is new and you don't have to remove old bearing/press in new. If you have a NAPA in you town, sometimes they will press the bearings into your hub/spindle if you purchase the bearing from them. Just a few thoughts, I have done quite a few of these - one of the more labor intensive yet satisfying DIY mechanic jobs you can do! Thanks for posting!

      I need to do this to the rear wheels on my CR-V. It's front wheel drive so there is only a short axle to remove with no connections to a differential. I think I can remove the ABS sensor and then slide hammer the old bearings out without removing the knuckle. (How's that for barbaric? ;o) ) Then I'll use the old bearings to pound the new ones back in. Should be quick since I'm not removing the knuckle..

    Hey guys keep up the good work, the video reminded me of when I was a young guy back in the 60's and 70's and no one had the proper tools or the money to do the same job your doing. We would do exactly what your doing hanging out with our friends working on cars, working out how things came apart and back together again. Trust me mate hitting a bearing the way you did is not going to do jack shit to it that's how we did it back then and we had no problems, and I'm glad to see blokes still working on cars hanging out with their buddies doing something constructive well done. Don't listen to the haters and the know it all's keep up the good work. Buy the way I'm still working on cars not only with my friends but with my son and it's fantastic.

      modern bearings are designed to fail designed obsolescence ... pot-holes wreck them and hammering them this way starts off similar damage to the bearing surfaces. The hardness is too shallow in the bearing surfaces nowadays so the soft metal beneath deforms on impact.

    I was researching the question what should be the diameter of the supportive disc on the back in the process of the hub installation and found the answer, thank you very much for the film. For the replacement I used press and a kit for bearing, but ruined 2 bearings because placed a disc of the larger diameter, so it went over the compressing ring and the central part of the bearing started to come off. I thought maybe I pressed too much started over with the same result at the end, the bearing was ruined. After watching this film I realized what could be wrong and used the disc of the smaller diameter, which compressed just inner part. The third knuckle assembly was done correctly. Thank you again.

    Eye protection! Eye protection! Eye protection!
    Removing the inner ring off the hub spindle by chiseling is extremely dangerous. One should wear even long pants. The bearing is highly hardened and chiseling it to crack it may cost you an eye! The pieces might fly out with such force and they are so sharp, that years ago, when I was doing the same thing, a piece flew out and penatreted my shin bone skin so deep that blood started squirting out as if I got shot by a a miniature bullet. I had never seen such an effect, and I poked myself hundred of times in my life.
    You guys should reshoot that video or add a note in the beginning about the importance of eye protection, particulary in this procedure.

    This is a great video. I'd like to add, at 18:50, using a dremel instead of a grinder works much better. The small dremel cutting disc matches the shape of the inner race better and you can cut a notch parallel to the shaft of the axle, instead of at a 45 degree angle when using the large grinding wheel. Also if you cut two notches 180 degrees apart then when you use a cold chisel and strike the notch, the inner race will split into two halves and literally fall off. I think this is because the inner race is extremely hard but also extremely brittle.

      Btw if my wheel bearing failed on the road and had to be towed can i still use the same wheel hub? Or do you think it's damaged and I need a new? The wheel has play and some ball bearings fell out but I didn't drive it much after it failed. It basically stoped me as it failed as i was rolling out of a parking lot. I tried rolling it into a parking space but I was afraid of losing the wheel so I stopped and called a tow. Now it's sitting outside but I want the wheel bearings because the whole wheel hub assembly is too expensive. Can I still use my wheel hub?

      DO NOT FOLLOW THESE GUYS EXAMPLES! At best you will install damaged new bearings onto your car. At worst you will lose and eye or two, or your helper will. It could be done safely in a similar way but NOT using claw hammers as cold chisels and hammering the new bearing to install the hub... that is just the wrong way to do it... should freeze the hub overnight to -21 or lower and after bearing inserted into yolk then wearing insulating gloves and having pre-lubed the bearing inner surface offer up the hub quickly and squarely to the bearing centre it should go in at least half way maybe more before it expands and starts to bind and need pressing in or in this case hammering. But you really need to minimise amount of hammering to drive the hub home if you can. Even cheap low strength off the shelf reading glasses offer some eye protection if you can't even afford a set of protective glasses/goggles... fitting a wheel bearing on the cheap is not worth losing an eye or two!
