    What a creative design, use a flex washer to offer some 'give' to the system, so applied torque reaches a plateau. That would also reduce the chance of early bearing failure when the assembly robots ovetorque to align cotter pin holes. Cool.

    Great video series so far with the Santa Fe, it brings back some memories from when I was a parts guy at a Hyundai dealership. That body style of Santa Fe starting in 2007 had known issues with rear hub & bearings. There's a dust shield that supposed to cover and protect the side of the bearing, but the ones that were put on in the factory had a gap that allowed dirt, grit and crud to get in and destroy the bearing. They were also prone to front sway bar links wearing out, fuel level sending units failing (they have two) and rear differential coupling units seizing. Very popular vehicles though!

    I went through half my life not knowing how to use a "ball-peen" hammer. When using an expanding fastener, you put the ball on the fastener, then hit the face of the "ball-peen" hammer with a second hammer. I don't doubt there are many occasions when this little bit of knowledge would be useful.

    Found another video that is going to help me out. I thought I watched the right video about the Santa Fe rear bearings, but nope. Must have been a different year with the ABS ring inside the bearing. I got all prepared to get the bearing out, and the ABS ring was in the way. I was trying to figure out how to get the CV axle out so I could get to the bolt heads. Came back to utoob and your video was suggested on the side. Just what I needed to see. Thanks!
    Also, thanks for the tip on gravity bleeding. I'm doing the rear calipers on my daughter's Rogue, so she'll be able to spend less time helping me if I gravity bleed them first. LOL

    I just went through all of this, knowing my '11 SF GLS needed backing plates and the complete parking brake assemblies on both sides. I originally sent it in last week and had to rebook it a week later because the axles were seized in both hubs. The shop wanted to have new hubs and axles on hand in case they destroyed the originals, plus he is one of the busier and well known to be trusted shops in our small area (Windsor, Nova Scotia, higher up in the rust belt). Over the summer, I ordered two complete backing plates (OEM Hyundai parts) that included everything including the actuator. My AC also died in the spring, so I ordered a compressor and condenser from Rockauto. I should have added two wheel bearings/hubs and two rear axles, because in the end, they had to be pulled from the differential as one assembly, they were seized that bad, and I had to pay for the overpriced local parts from the shop that did the work. This was after I had the drivers side apart about a month ago, trying to replace the parts myself. I failed miserably, mind you, I don't have a hoist, and most of the work was done on my 44 year old, construction-abused knees, and I didn't have nearly enough leverage, even with a breaker bar, to get some of the fasteners loose. It ended up costing me alot more than I had planned on spending, but at least now it has a new 2 year MVI sticker on it and working AC, and the parts they bought are lifetime warrantied. What frustrates me is given the right shop to work out of, I have the ability and tools to complete the work, which typically saves me a lot of money. However, all I have is an attached garage, which, granted I can do basic stuff like oil changes, brake work, and tire/wheel swap-overs. 2 years out of high school, I had completed a basic MVR mechanical course at the local community college and started working at a small Ford dealership in our local town. However, I was only 18 when I started that job, and the shop foreman was a prick, who clearly had a dislike for me. I only worked there for 9 months, and I did learn quite a bit. But I ended up going back to construction work with my father after being laid off in the winter.

    Man, if an inspector at the "Dept of main roads" here in Aus sees a bit of surface rust ANYWHERE on a vehicle they have kittens for days.
    We call it the "roadworthy kit". 4 tins of Degreaser, silicon spray, and 3 tins of gloss black spray paint.

      Is only a problem east of the Rocky Mountains. I was a mechanic in California and never had to deal with rust like that, except on a few cars that came from the east. If I grew up east of the Rockies, I would have become an electrician.

      @Samuel Lim999 Oh, I'm well aware of why it is so. It's just amazing to see the differences in organisations.
      Same goes with your police, you get pulled up on a bike or car over there, often just have a chat with the officer, get a verbal warning and you're on your way. Over here, you get pulled up by a pig, you're getting a ticket, period. The only question is how many ticket's you're gonna get.

      There are areas west of the mountains that have bad rust problems, anywhere near the
      coast of Washington state, onshore flow of salt air and you have serious rust, I've had
      to fix all manufacturers frames with fish plates and channel, so it's not just in the east,
