That guy is really good. He should be an auto teacher if he isn't
A tip to make life a bit easier, rap the new bearing in paper and then a in a poly bag and put in in the freezer for as long as you can as this shrinks the bearing, and once you have the bearing out clean the hub put the and then put it in some boiling water, when the hub id hot it expands remove it grease it and fit the bearing quick as a cold bearing will almost drop in, but be ready as the bearing will warm quick and return to it's normal size, it works both ways external bearings water proof bag and in boiling water and the hub in the freezer if it fits inside the bearing.
Amazing video as always.. we need 1a auto in Australia
Fun drinking game take a shot every time he says bonk 😂

@@MotorsportPinto YOOOOOO hahaha you beat me to it 😄 🤣 😂
Challenge accepted 😎 🍻
Great video unfortunately My bearing seized in the knuckle and now I have a blown-out bearing inside and can't get it out. Tried heat, oil, and hard love....nothing, however, I really enjoy the videos and go here every time for tutorials. I cannot express enough my gratitude for these videos.

This is the best guy to watch working on cars

I used an inexpensive one-man bleeder on my 1998 Jeep years ago , worked great. Just a hose with a one-way check ball on one end that you keep in a container filled with brake fluid. When you pump the pedal it prevents air/fluid from going back into caliper.
Hey ! i STILL HAVE IT !
Great detail here! I have the same press and just did my Accord's front wheel bearing. The only problem is that I forgot to install the snap ring back in. FML!
Great instructional video. How far do you press the hub into the bearing? From what I understand when you press the hub too far into the bearing the caliper bracket will bind to the rotor.
Great vid
Nice job and explaining everything along the way! Not an easy job!

What are the size blocks you are using when pressing out and in the bearing and hub? Wanting to do this to my Ford Focus also if you are pressing in a bearing and it splits does that mean you should take it all apart and order a new bearing?
Excellent and detailed instructions. Well lit and great view of the work being done. Fantastic video! Thank you.
I've completed one of these before, our 10ton jack wasn't enough with all the rust, had to take it into a local shop with their 40ton. Took about 15tons to get the bearing out.
I have a 20 ton press like the one in the video. At one point I wasn't sure if it was going to work. But it all work out in the end. In the future, if I don't have a press I'm going to take the knuckle to the shop and have them do the pressing for about 1 hour of labor. 100% worth saving the headache. But if you don't mind taking the time to do it then a 20 ton press is the way to go.
I would've tried to use the old snap ring to see if it fits better your new one might be a little thicker
Thank you! Very educative!
+Petar Malesev Thanks for checking us out! 1aau.to/m/Shop-1AAuto-c
Do you have the take the knuckle out to replace the assembly? Other videos show them using a chisel to take the bearing assembly out without removing the knuckle? My car is 02 Civic
Thank you for your help
Love the Instruction!One thing LOSE the "Easy peasy" LOL!
I'm saying man he should stop that lmao. I been watching all the vids on the focus and I can confirm it is not easy peasy 🤣
Bonk! Thanks for vid

Len where can I get a couple of bleeder screw caps for my bleeder screws? I just had some brake lines re done on my focus and the bleeder screw broke on my left rear caliper this was told to me by the tech who did the job he was able to remove the broken one but the replacement screw he put on does not have a cap . he should have put one on
Goood video, great information !
How many tons is your shop press? Great videos by the way.
What is the torque for the wheel bearing nut how many lbs?
Bonks.... Hahaha I love it
Legend! Bonk bonk
He put the break in "beating the brakes off" this car
Ever considered some grease to get those in?
What is the part in the center called that is missing?
Do you have any videos on how to put back a manual transmission on 1989 Honda Accord lxi, my mechanic took it apart and can't figure how to put it back, I am so sad, I had a running car and now its been a year since he messed it up, but I don't want to give up my car to the junk yard
+justYouJesus1God We currently do not have an auto repair video that covers this particular repair. We will keep this request in mind in the event that we need to make this repair in the future. 1aauto.com
What direction goes in the hub first on the bearing
hi len grate video I m getting ready to replace mine on my focus sonn. where did you get that ball pein hammer? I really like that one and want to buy the same one
+JOE FORD DIY Thanks for watching! I do not have the model number for that hammer, but it can be found at pretty much any local hardware store. 1aauto.com
ok can you tell me how many pounds it is?
My mechanic took both sides apart, but he never did the steps you did. All he did was put grease on it, but never took the hub off or anything, it remained the same, it makes noise. And the breaks have air now, he never fixes the car the first time.
It's ok man your on video I understand. I would've wacked the hell out of it with a rubber mallet lol. Good job keep up the great work.
Thanks for checking us out. 1aauto.com +Devin Tolliver
anti-seize spray just makes a big mess and it gets all over the wheel studs as well. use fluid film instead witch is made for this. but that's just me I have the same veh only its the wagon with the 2.3 also ford says whenever reusing the same hardware use a little blue lock tight on the threads but that's how we do it at the dealer
Wheel bearings (front) on a Focus 2014 have been a complete nightmare
for me. I ham pressing the old ones out just like this video of yours,
then pressing the new ones in (even froze them for a better fit when
pressing) ... Everything looks and feels fine but the moment I install
this back on the car, I get the famous wheel wobble again .. It's beyond
me what I am doing wrong as I am doing everything by the book! ...
Help!
Your wheels might be warped. Hit any big pothole recently?
There is also an abs sensor you have to remove, it sits right at the bearing
The sensor is for the ABS and apparently this car doesn't have it.
You Def want to out this exle nut all the way on flush with the end of the axle before hitting it. The axle nut has a metal casing around it that holds the washer on and it can get deformed and you can't get the socket back on the nut, or the washer can come lose from the back of the nut.
I bought a hydra press just for this job.
El cable de caliper es muy corto tendrá problemas jirar la llanta
Did no one else notice that the inner pad on that caliper was practically nonexistent?
20 ton press?
A1 video's have always been great an 8 or 9 but this one is a new low maybe a 2 or 3.
2012 Hyundai Veloster front wheel assembly hub
Wow cars there look like they were ocean-driven.
sound like randy couture "BONK BONK"
How much do mechanics charge to change a bearing or two so that I don't get ripped off?
I was quoted 500 dollars to change out the bearings on both front tires. I also live in Seattle. Expensive here.
Depending on where you go.
Dealership will be the most around $100-$115/hr
3rd party shops be around $70-$80/Hr
Chances are be around $250-$450 but like I mentioned depending on where go for the work
Jesus. For that kind of cash you can buy the tools and do the job yourself.
Did anybody else hear him say how much to torque the axle nut
The main thing you forgot to mention was axel nut foot pounds specs.
+Soma P Thanks for the feedback! This will be 266 ft-lb, apologies for not including this!
LOL "Bonk"
Don't force it. Get a bigger hammer.
Hey Brutha without being rude you should have used a good quality penerant and allowed it time to sit that using your Air hammer with a pointed tip let the repeated vibration of the airhammer to "Wake up" your lock ring .... Heat only burns the seal up and sets the grease on fire ,, Dude .. come on brutha ?????
So, are you putting bad info out there so people mess stuff up, or do you just have bad sources for torque specs?
Might as well buy a new car with all that replacement...lol jp
This guy is bonking the steering knuckle with a sledge. Using a soft socket to press the bearing, heating the bearing which will make his job harder, HEATING THE KNUCKLE is also incorrect. take his ASE away; Im doubtful he has it Hes gonna get someone killed eventually.
Don't do this. Let the penetrant work. Be patient.
What a moronic design by none other than.....FORD!
You're not a mechanic I can tell.
