    Thank you guys so much!!! Had to buy a 30mm socket, and used a breaker bar. Worked like a charm. The hardest part was the stupid bearing cap.

    Great video help alot...
    Make sure u get a torque wrench...
    Axle grease...
    N the tool that compresses the brake piston down if you replace the brake pads...
    That slowed me down going to auto part store during install...
    Thanks buds...

    I can't believe I've been paying for someone to do my brakes....it's so freaking easy thanks to you guys for making these videos subscribed!

      @matthewolson8875  8 лет назад +1

      Brakes are easy, and vitally important the torque settings are correct, otherwise you can get killed, or something else can get killed. One of the reason I do my own is because then I know how the job was done....and that makes me more comfortable on the road :) glad you liked the vid!

    Maybe someone has already commented it, given that this video is close to 6 years old, but I'll add it anyways if it helps someone out: per the factory service manual for the '02 Maxima, the bearing nut should be torqued to a value between 138 and 188 ft-lbs. Or 187-254 Nm. Pretty much what the Haynes Manual says for the older models.

    The press bolts (which released the rotor from the hub - when necessary) are metric threads.

    I changed the front wheel bearings and broke the first ABS sensor and bolt. Before I tried to remove the 2nd one, I lubed both with PB Blaster and let it sit for at least 30 minutes. That's versus waitng for about 30 seconds and only on the bolt on the first one. There are raised ridges on the sensor that fit into grooves in the sensor hole. Therefore I gently tapped the 2nd sensor straight out and managed to save and reinstall it. It has no moving parts, so I was happy to reuse it and save $30!

  • @jmb92555
    @jmb92555 5 лет назад +1

    Great vid and much appreciated. That would have been a good time to replace the ABS sensor. Looking at the rust on that car I'm pretty sure you're going to break the (weak/rusted) sensor retaining bracket bolt (good luck fixing that) and have to knock the sensor itself out of it's bore through the outside... which means you'll probably be removing all these parts one more time. I've done 3 ABS sensors on my 2001 Maxima. Only one came out the way it was meant to come out. Way to go Nissan ;) I've done the front bearings also (w/o a press) and that's a real fun job too lol

    no grease in bearings, it will not take long for the bearings to get worn out, no axle stands. the lock nut has to be renewed, every time this job is done.

    • @matthewolson8875
      @matthewolson8875  8 лет назад

      thanks for the tips...#1 it was my understanding these bearings are greased at the factory and if they had needed to be packed there was no notification of such in the box. 2...totally agree with the axle stands....3...didn't know the lock nut was not reusable. seems it needs to be included with the bearing in that case. couldn't find a proper torque spec for this either....the one nut where the Haynes manual was unclear

    About to replace my rear bearing on my 02 Maxima. I see the actual balls of the bearing are completely exposed, covered in grease. Is there suppose to be some type of housing mechanism on this that fits over the balls and under the bearing cap? What stops the grease from leaking out of the bearing once it gets hot? Thanks!

    Hi All!.......The Timken's don't come with a new speed sensor sprocket. Why would I reuse the one on the current hub, my guess is it's rusted to crap? Is it difficult to reuse the sprocket or should I just go with the Moog hub which has a sensor sprocket? It kind of sucks because I keep hearing Timken is the best hub. Thanks for any input!

    • @matthewolson8875
      @matthewolson8875  5 лет назад

      If you can get the speed sensor out carefully I'd reuse it. If you bust it gotta buy new. I like the Timken bearings myself

    • @captainrj3121
      @captainrj3121 5 лет назад +1

      Correction its is called an ABS Ring and the only place to get one is at the dealer which costs $140, yes $140 for a ring. since the dealer hub comes w/o the ring I ordered the Timken and will see if I can re-use the old ring.

    question. Today my o2 maxima was acting weird. I live in Chicago so we get crazy weather where it's super cold then super warm in December like today. so my question is, that when I went to go turn it on it gave me trouble and when I got it to turn on and tried to move it in reverse, it didn't let me but then i moved it and i have a check engine light, and I noticed that my gas Mileage is getting bad. Do I need a tune up & something else?

    • @matthewolson8875
      @matthewolson8875  7 лет назад

      Edgar Corral wow...that is a long and involved question...I have no capacity to diagnose that over youtube. ...if your car has over 100000 miles odds are most of the rubber components are shot. ...axles...bearings etc. start playing catchup with parts replacement asap ....have a trusted mechanic go through it....especially if the car is exposed to salty roads. ...

      @matthewolson8875  7 лет назад

      Edgar Corral again...a question that requires a complex answer. I had mine until 165k....my brother has got to be closer to 200k on his. Depends on what goes wrong with the car...and how adept you are at fixing it...and how badly you need to get to work reliably. Worry is pointless....getting to have a mechanic is essential ...have the car checked out and best of luck

      the power issue on your car sounds like a fuel delivery problem. its just not getting fuel. one of the forums would be a better place to have that discussion though, best of luck!
