- How to change a press in wheel bearing without a press. In this video I'm going to show you how to change a very common type of automotive wheel bearing. The press in type. These bearings are used in a lot of front wheel drive vehicles, small cars, minivans, and SUVs. These bearings are common across all different brands of cars and the procedure to change them is pretty similar.
You need to remove the wheel and tire, the CV shaft from the wheel hub. Remove the brake caliper and the brake rotor. Next, install the wheel hub adapter onto the wheel hub and use the slide hammer to remove the wheel hub. Remove the snap ring holding in the bearing, using the press kit press out the old wheel bearing, and press in the new wheel bearing. Using the wheel bearing press it press in the hub. Reassemble the brakes and install the wheel and enjoy!
Tools that I used in this video to change this wheel bearing:
Astro Wheel Bearing Press Kit: amzn.to/3t2POLQ
Side Hammer: amzn.to/3tX6yDM
Snap Ring Pliers: amzn.to/3t1Tvl6

YOUNG MAN THIS WAS THE BEST DESCRIPTION I'VE EVER SEEN IN MY ENTIRE LIFE THIS IS THE BEST JOB I'VE EVER SEEN OF ANYBODY LAID OUT HOW TO DO THIS. .....
I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY MORONS HAVE BEEN ON TH-cam WITH THEIR LET'S BE A CLOWN AND PRETEND LIKE WE KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING CHANNEL AND I GOT NOWHERE...
NOW THAT I'VE SEEN YOU DO THIS I HAVE THE CONFIDENCE IN MYSELF ENOUGH TO GO AND GET THAT TOOL SET AGAIN AND COME BACK AND DO MY CAR ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ......
THANKS A LOT I APPRECIATE THAT
God bless you in return thank you for your honesty thank you for sharing
Hey mate! You always replace the hub assembly it’s cheap and makes a great repair!
Great video, thank you very much. Question, did you leave the Ring that protects the speed sensor, or did you land that in when you removed the bearing. Also, will this process work on a 2010 ACURA TL?
U don't press against the middle it will ruin the bearing
This man was thorough and explained everything in exact direction. This is by far one of the best instructional I've watched.
Yes it was very clear and well shot!
I second that. Very well explained. Couldn’t find it specific to my vehicle, but this is so clear I don’t need it anymore.
This is by far the best instruction video on replacing a FWD front wheel bearing. I’m a Honda tech by trade, and I can say that every steps, tips, and cautions are all spot on. Only thing I might say is that by using the impact gun you may damage the threads on the tool prematurely, especially if it’s a cheaper quality installation tool.
I have the same tool and have used it countless times. I always put a little bit of gear oil on the threads of the bolt. Tool still works like brand new
Yes, grease or oil the threads to protect them. No anti-seize!
I totally agree, great job in the instructions
Dose it make a difference on which direction you press out/in the bearing?
@@businessraptor127only can be pressed in one way
A Dremel is enough to put a cut into the race. It doesn't take much of a cut to get the tip of chisel in to crack it. I've done both. Next time I'll reach for my Dremel.
I just place a chisel between the race and the hub, go around hammering not too hard and the race starts to separate, i foumd no need to cut into the race
The best wheel/hub bearing video ive seen yet. Very well explained. Clearly! Even a 6 year old could understand the steps. Now i just need to grab the press kit for myself instead of renting one whenever i come across this type of job. Thanks dude!
Great video! Straight to the point without any unnecessary babbling, annoying music etc.
You made this so easy. I’ve never done it before and finished it in under 3 hours. Thank you!
This has been the best video I have found on how to do this. Mt car is similar to how this one was and made it so much simpler than what other videos are showing. Thank you
I've watched a lot of repair videos for different repairs and this guy is good. Thank you so much for this video. So well explained.
Great video! To remove the hub without a slide hammer I removed the control arm laid it on two 4x4's and knocked it out with a big socket and a hammer. It came out real easy.
The best what, how, why, video on press in wheel bearing out there. There are too many videos on the subject that all they seem to be doing is showing off how well their impact wrench works without hardly any what and why. Thanks Repair Geek.
Great video. Well explained and nice photography. On a comment, someone said put the new bearing in the freezer before installing to shrink it, goes in lots easier. Thanks for sharing.
Best video on the subject. Thank you, now I have the confidence to do it. Too many people on TH-cam assume everyone understands “specialty” tools, thank you for the explanation.
Really thorough instruction of the tools and process. This vid will definitely help any DIYer get through the process with an understanding beforehand, which could otherwise be intimidating. Great job!
The best detailed info on replacing a wheel bearing. Thank you! ( Especially the part of making sure the hub fits on cv axel spline)
Best wheel bearing install video I’ve seen. Great job.
Superb video, the camerawork, narration and explanations and tips are spot on. Thank you for taking the time in producing this video and sharing your knowledge.
I just did this on my wrx following this guide, the driver side front bearing was completely toast. I was originally going to take off knuckle, take it to a shop to get it pressed, then get an allignment after.
Was able to do it for just the cost of the bearing itself. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. After watching this I'm confident I can change mine rather than paying the dealership to do it or buying pre-pressed full knuckles. You so right, the bearing and new hub are quite inexpensive. I can get both for less than $100! And the pre-pressed full kuckle would have cost me $900 for both!
Wow!!! This is The BEST and most detailed instructional video on this procedure that I have found! I really don’t know how it could be any better. Certainly gives me some confidence in performing this on my Pilot. Thanks for such a Great Job! New Sub and Ringing da Bell😊👍👍
I have used my dumb bells instead of that special tool to remove my rusty hub yesterday. Seeing that tool on TH-cam helped me to realize what I need when I was struggling and it worked out
i like it.....i used to pull the whole knuckle off and lugged it over to the big press...if you have the right tool, your way works great...our problem many times is the snap ring is rusted solid into the knuckle or some other Northeast problem because of salt and rust...great job
Best video on this I have seen yet! Thank you very much!
I finished doing my daughter's 2018 Buick. I bought the press tool although it was a different brand. I followed this video and everything worked great. I do not have an impact, but a cheater bar worked.
A couple of things were different on this Buick. I had to take the tie rod loose. The snap ring was on the back side. After removing it, the bearing had to be pressed out the back and installed from the back. Was still able to do it on the car.
I really appreciate this video. I probably would not have tried diy without it. There are a lot of videos on this subject, but this was the best.
Thank you for a very thorough explanation of the job. Will be using your instruction when I do my front bearings.
Fantastic explanation. I’ve changed the rear wheel bearings before, no problem. But the front is a different animal. Going to this wheel bearing puller, so thanks for the insight
Awesome. Very detailed and easy explanation of the process. I am replacing both front bearings on my Mitsubishi Outlander. I bought also the hubs. Going to be easier to replace both bearings and hubs.
Thank you very much.
Just done it .. keep the bearing straight kinda tricky . I use hammer and old bearing to put then straight before using this tools.. it works perfectly . Thanks for the video
Very nice presentation. I do personally enjoy watching your videos. You explain everything for the correct install. And you give secert tricks along the way. So thanks buddy 😎
Absolutely awesome video. I feel like every other video pulls the hub and then just tells you to "put it on you hydraulic press". This was super detailed and perfect for the everyday DIYer that doesn't have multi thousand dollar tools. Thank you sir!
Nice to see it done properly, most end up pushing on the inner to get the outer diameter and vice versa, damaging the bearin by apply massive static side loads!
Highly detailed instructions absolute THE BEST
Excellent video the best so far. it cleared a few doubt I had about this project
One of the best diy I have seen! Thank you
Thank you! I have done these with no hub shark tool or vise, just bfh, some old bearing case, 2×4 (not ideal 😂)...but yours videos is the best, very detail!
Outstanding explanation. Detailed and didn't seem long and boring.
Great video, you explained most important info. I needed because I don't own a press, thanks very much!
Awesome job explaining, I just finished my bearing job you are correct I'll need a new abs speed sensor and they are not cheap. Sure wish I had seen this video prior. I had chosen the Dorman complete knuckle assembly but after four weeks of waiting I changed the bearing and abs sensor.
Excellent video! I feel encouraged! 👍
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Just changed the bearings on a 2010 Mercedes B200 and this tutorial helped tremendously.
Good Video. Quick, simple and accurate. Thank you
I always thought you needed to use the outside of the bearing to push it in, not the inside. I do them just like bushings, I would have used a larger plate to cover the entire bearing and push it in by the outer race, if you push it in using the inner race you can damage the bearings.
If you watch going in he pushed on the outside!
He did use the inner bearing to press in the hub. That is the correct way to install the hub as it does not put pressure on the bearings and keeps both halves of the inner race together. If you are pressing on just the outer race there is a good probability that the inner race opposite the hub will get pushed out of the bearing destroying it. *Depending on what kind of tool is used obviously.
The inside bearing is supported with this tool configuration so no damage is done
FFS lads it has nothing to do with the inside or the outside in situation X or Y. Just dont crush the balls. Easy.
Thank you Thank you Thank you!! This is without a doubt the best instructional video I could find on this topic.
My dude is a hero!
Great video thanks man. Good tips and pointers!! I am getting ready to do this on my daughters' 2005 Accord and was a little worried as I do not have a press. Problem solved! SUBSCRIBED
This demonstration was very understandable! Thank you very much. 😊
Thank you so much. You were the only one who made such a detailed video i could find on here.
Wire wheel to clean out the snap ring groove. Assemble using a very light oil. Nice video.
I have this tool. Never use impact gun but now i got to do it. Locks so easy.
Finally found a video that they actually teach you how to use the tool everyone else I have seen would just talk and talk and talk and not get to the point
Very nice video. I have this exact same bearing puller/installer set. The anti-sieze all over the bolt and washers is a must. I haven't used mine with an impact yet but here in the rust belt, a 4 foot pipe wrench is often the best for turning these seized bearings out.
140 pds of PURE GENIUS 💪💯💪💯💪💯💪 Please keep the DIY videos coming
Great video! Thanks for posting this!
Dude, I love your personality and common sense. You just got a subscriber and a like, and I rang the bell for all notifications. Thank you so much for this!
Thanks for the well delivered process! Great job.
Excellent video!! I was contemplating taking my new hub and bearing to a shop to get it pressed. But I think I'll buy a bearing press kit and slide hammer.
That is what I needed! Step by step, thank you!❤👋😁
Splendid my brother. The wheel bearings on my Jaguar X-Type in the front is going and they are Pressed in. This will help me greatly... I have a Ingersol impact drill paired with old Betty(BFH), Nothing will stop us. I gotta check tho to make sure thor returned my 🔨...lol great video!
Best video by far pertaining to this topic!
Very well done tutorial, greatly appreciated.
VERY thorough and informative. Good video.
Great explanation dude! Thanks!
Very good instruction.. nice to know it can be done for when the time comes! Thank you. Wonder how much more difficult it would be on a 4Runner vs a small car.
Nailed it! I totally agree with Mike C. Best instruction video for replacing a FWD front wheel bearing (and without removing the steering knuckle). I never would have guessed that you can do this on the car. Thank you so much RG. Oh, and your sound & camera work are exceptional!!!
Yes they are- Extreme Professionals on this channel and it’s Greatly Appreciated 👍👍
You forgot rear drive hub bearings too on AWD vehicles
Thsnk you, thank you, thank you for the demo on this. Most helpful. Acura MDX dust shield removal, this helped a lot.
Outstanding video! Love the explanation of everything
Great video. I would recommend wiping the camera lens with isopropanol or other fluid that can remove grease without damaging the lens itself. The blurry image suggests that you have a thin oil surface on your camera lens surface.
You’re a master at your work excellent explain very well
Nice video! Im a industrial mecano and car always been something way différents for me but this video clearly help me for my toyota Corolla wich need a front bearing fix soon 😅
Your high and top quality video and outstanding step by step effective instructions made me subscribe.
From Scotland. The snap ring is usually rusted up so bad that its almost rusted away, I find that welding washer or bit of steel to it , then use a slid hammer with vice grips, will shift it. It's all down hill from then. Good demo, by the way.
I prefer your wheel bearing replacement its straight forward an easy to repair.all good thanks for the information
Wow nice job, pretty straight forward. Thanks
Have an Audi Q7 and need to replace front bearing, good video man..
Many thanks for this instructional video! Succesfully changed the front bearings on my Land Rover Freelander 1 with the help of it. EDIT: Just remember to remove the circlips before trying to push out the bearing :D And fit new ones after installing the new bearing.
Truly excellent instructions. Well done!!
You did a hell of a video instruction piece by piece the best video say hi from Puerto Rico
Excellent explanation,thank you!
Best viewing iv seen yet. Good description well explained thank you
Hey Bro Thanks for sharing this video really appreciated now i could do my 06 Honda Odyssey.
That was very well explained. Well one.
Great step by step video tutorials and easy to follow instructions. Thank you for sharing your expertise. Btw I am your new subscriber.
Fkn awesome, need my daily civic SI done. Ordering the bearings now. Thanks again.
Marvelous video, thanks.
This is at least the 10th video that I am watching on this topic, in anticipation of having to replace the wheel bearings of my 08 Pilot. And this is by far the best description, including insights into the actual physics of pulling the bearing out. Thank you so much... While I am not sure which model of Honda your vehicle is, from appearance the knuckle assembly looks identical to mine. So, hopefully I can also remove the top two bolts attaching to the strut without affecting the wheel alignment...
Did you replace the bearing? I’m doing same on rear of my pilot. One option for the front is to replace entire knuckle assembly. It’s pricier but saves a lot of time. And I had to replace abs sensor as it was froze in old knuckle.
@@Merrill26osu It so turned out that the noise from my wheels were actually coming from the tires (got this confirmed with a mechanic as well). So I did not attempt this repair. And yes, the far easier solution for worn front wheel bearings might be to replace the knuckle assembly as a whole. However, this option did not seem available for rear wheels. The process also looked more complex than front wheels due to the parking brake assembly, and I was not able to locate any video instructions for rear wheels. How did you handle it?
@@Musiclover5258 Rear wheels at least on my Hondas are a piece of cake vs this. You just unbolt the wheel hub and bolt a new one on (the hub and bearing come as one unit)
@@JCO847 I am assuming yours is 2009 model or later? For Honda Pilot 2008 and earlier, it is unfortunately the more complicated route 😞
@@Musiclover5258ahhh I was talking Accord. No drive wheels in rear so easy bolt on hub. I assume with AWD then you have axle nuts and press in bearings etc in the rear too is that right?
Brilliant Video Thanks
First time I replaced front bearings I ended up taking the knuckles off as the slide hammer wasn't able to get the hub out of them and made a huge racket that my neighbors probably weren't too happy with as I work on the street.
I got one hub out with a small sledgehammer pounding a large impact socket that I used as a drift, but the other one just wouldn't budge so I took it to a shop to be pressed out. I got the rest done using this Astro Pneumatic tool, which was pretty straightforward.
I can verify that getting wheel speed sensors out of old and rusty knuckles is almost impossible to do without breaking them, because I tried this on a 30 year old car last year and broke both of the rear ones. Each costs around $350 so I now have to either do without and put up with that annoying ABS light (or just pull the fuse) and of course no ABS, shell out $700 for new ones, or try to jerry-rig ones out of the old sensor cables which are fine and a hall effect sensor (or whatever sensor they use) with the right voltage output and a rod that fits just right in the hole. I'm going to try the latter first.
Also, you should grease or lube that forcing bolt before using this tool, to make things go easier and protect the threads.
And, different cars have different pressed-in bearing setups, with some coming out the outboard side and some coming out the inboard side. It's basically wherever that snap ring goes.
Btw snap rings are well-named because when you remove them they snap at you, so wear eye protection folks or put something solid in front of them when you remove them.
Very well done and explained 🙏
Great vid. (as always) - thanks!!
As a DIY'er thank yiu very much. Makes perfect sense in 20/20 hindsight
Great video very educational.
Get a welder and put a nice big bead on the race, the heat will make it expand and it will basically fall off
Tha k you ,good job, it helped me out big time,God bless you and your family 😊
😂❤😂😂❤❤ I love the lbs4lbs comparison. Great stuff.... the best video man. Thanks!
Great step by step video.
Well explained. Thank you for this video
Very useful video content. Thank you 😊
Excellent video, thanks a lot!! Greetings from Italy!
Great video! Thank you!
Very well done tutorial, greatly appreciated.. Very well done tutorial, greatly appreciated..
Many years ago I did a Toyota Corolla and those models CV shafts bolted to the transmission instead of spline shaft slide-in. Remove four bolts, the outer shaft nut and it came out without unbolting/removing anything else. Super easy. To bad they all aren't made that way.
