12:30 It is better to unscrew this nut later, when you unscrew the steering knuckle from the shock absorber, then you tilt the steering knuckle towards you and slide out the axle shaft. Then you approach it from above with an impact wrench, and you can knock out the ball pin with a hammer from above or with an impact hammer. It goes faster and smoother. As for the half axle, if it doesn't want to come out of the bearing in the hub, you can use an SDSMAX hammer drill (the plus one has too small an impact) and insert a spike into the hole in the half axle. The most stuck axle shaft comes out as if it was greased and you will not damage the thread under the nut. Thank you very much for your videos, I learned a lot and sorry for any spelling mistakes, I use google translator.
Yes, I have been looking to buy my own press as this is the only tool I need often and don't have. The prices have doubled so I am actually considering building my own. Thanks for your comment and for watching my video
Can you change the abs securing ring without having to remove the wheel bearing? My wheel bearing is ok on my van it's just the abs holder that is corroded
@@TheKeenMechanic Bit of a crap design most abs sensors are secured with a 10mm small bolt, my abs light came on and I turned the steering wheel to full lock got under the van to find the abs sensor hanging the securing locator has totally corroded away. Think I might try get hold of a new wheel bearing knuckle with everything already installed be less of a ball ache and a straight swap. Have you ever replaced the lower steering wrack shaft nuckle, just wondering has my steering has slight play, still after swooping out the inner and outer tie rods with new ones, just wondering if the flexible joint on the steering wrack lower joint nuckle could be the problem
@vauny24 Very poor design indeed. I have worked on many vehicles over the years and this is by far the worst design I have come across. Never had to do anything on my steering or rack as they are tight. I replaced both inner and outer rod ends though. Get new bearings, take the hub off and bring to someone with a press to fit it in for you. Best and cheapest option
Great video , amazing how you manage to get that bearing off by just hammering the socket to it , I went away and bought and 12 tonne press , no way it was coming out otherwise
@@garyharvey7905Great van and easy on fuel too. I used to use it as a daily too but at the moment it is up on the lift for a full restoration. I have done the front axle, next job is rear axle💪

@@dariuszmular1051 Thanks for watching and for your nice comment
great video. Now i know it would be easier to send the van in as I don't have all the tools... 🙂

@@vauny24 it was same in my case . Sadly you have to take the bearing out🤝🏻

How do you keep such a clean workshop . What's the model of the ratchet . Thanks. Nice vid. The Milwaukee
Hi and thanks for the compliments. I like to keep my workshop nice and clean😊. Which ratchet do you mean?
Great video , amazing how you manage to get that bearing off by just hammering the socket to it , I went away and bought and 12 tonne press , no way it was coming out otherwise
Thank you. I need to invest into a hydraulic press myself. Glad you like it and thanks for your message
Great work.. great videos as usual :)
Thanks Gary
A lot of videos on the Trafic/Vivaro coming in the next few weeks. Stay tuned
@@TheKeenMechanic love my 2006 1.9 trafic, use it as a day van for surfing 🌊 but the ULEZ zone my put an end to it?

Excellent video.
Thank you, glad people like my content🥰
I was expecting the ball joint had gone! They are cheap enough to replace everytime I need them off
🤝🏻
I kinda miss the part where u show how to insert abs ring.
There is nothing to it. Just make sure to insert it before you install the bearing 🤝
@@TheKeenMechanic Alright mate. Thanks for the long video!
@@Fanatiekeling747 You are welcome
Why are you draining brake fluid??
This was as I was removing the brakes as part of the restoration🤝🏻
It's not cast iron it's forged iron or steel. If it was cast it would crack
Thank you
Haha, this is not the way a pro does this
Absolutely agree with you🤝
