How to: Camaro Axle Bearing Replacement
ฝัง

- After I changed my rear brakes on my third gen 84 Camaro Z28, I noticed the right rear brake drum and wheel were getting pretty hot every time I drove the car. After checking and adjusting the rear brakes to no avail, I figured the axle bearing was the only other thing it could be. Watch how I replaced it myself (my first time doing this.)
You’ve got quite the inventory of 80s classics. Good for you.
one thing I learned Tony on this, if you have limited slip you need to add a tiny bit of limited slip additive to that 80w 90 oil!
This one is an open differential.
Lol thanks for doing this before I did it to my Firebird. That way I can get an ideah of what I have to deal with. Ill find the rest of the info online like how tight to go etc. Like that noisey bird in the background too!
Haha thanks!
It's 2024, and I can say I'm glad you kept plugging away at the Camaro. You have helped me a TON on my 1985 Camaro. I subscribed the first time I ran into one of your videos. Keep 'em coming!!
Thanks! Glad to be of help!
Thank you for sharing that clip ..
Man - you said it at the very end - when you said "One step forward two steps back the amount of things that go wrong with this car is seeming to be never ending" I have had a 92 RS third gen camaro - for 5 years - bought it for my daughter - it has been given to me - as the amount of things I need to fix never seems to end - hence - axle bearings now - how I found your vid - Just like me - DONT GIVE UP ON IT! Im not! I rebuilt the V6 engine over the winter last winter - now trans is leaking - never ends- Ive had major wins - I reprogrammed the eprom chip - so it runs at 180° now - get ahold of me if you want a fast easy guide to that
It's so true. And it does tempt me to give up, because I can't seem to get ahead. I'll keep at it...for now. Good luck with yours.
Thank you! About to do this myself, appreciate your video sir.
Thanks! Good luck!
Thanks for the video, also Derrick is awesome
We used Timken Bearings on the F-111 Aircraft Wheels that i used to work on, very good choice!!
Well that’s a good endorsement! Thanks Troy!
lmao, its hilarious to me at the end. I put a new engine in mine and did the brakes. Same issue, then found out my steering box was leaking and now the transmission too. Ugh, its been sitting for years - havent even gotten to drive the damn thing. Just cant find a good enough reason to throw money at it.
Tell me about it! This car is always kicking me in the nuts. Something is always going wrong no matter how much I try.
You forgot to lube the new bearing and the seal. It's going to tear up really fast. A flag on the oil don't make it good !
I did mention lubing it, even though I didn't show it. So it was lubed. The flag on the bottle was a lame joke.
@@nowherefastgarage Good Reply! That Guy that cant 't understand your humor!
