S10 hub installation
hello!
I am French, my vehicle is a LT 1999 chevrolet blazer, thank you for your advice!, thanks to you, I have great pleasure to service my car!
I tightened the 3 bolts as much as I could. No idea how but there is still a tiny amount of play on the top where that round plate between the knuckle and hub assembly actually moves with all 3 bolts tightened the hell out of. There's like a mm of play there. No idea what happened. Also I didnt torque those 3 but they are tight. I torqued the cv Nut to over 130 ft lbs. Hopefully nothing gets damaged...and no premature failure.
Love the way he pulls up so cool and that confidence he has telling us in the beginning makes me feel awesome!Gonna replace my wheel hub 😎
You're welcome. Thanks for watching. Have a great day! 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
doing this in the morning for a friend for $140 this reassured me of how simple it will be thanks for the pointers i'll subscribe
We normally recommend using some penetrating fluid such as PB blaster to brake up the rust. That normally helps with the removal of stubborn parts.
Thanks for checking us out. Have a great day! 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
Excellent Video and Instructions.
I am not a particularily good mechanic and usually have a professional do this type of work, but due to financial reasons I thought I would attempt this replacement on my 2000 GMC Jimmy.
The step by step instructions provided where excellent and I was able to to the job successfully.
I am from Canada, so did not us the 1AAuto parts,but the video really helped and I will look for your help for repairs in the future.
Thanks Again.
Yes all vehicles would have a hub nut for the 4wd.
I live in the Salt belt and I can tell you the driver side bearing will not come off. I've tried prying it, zip gun, heat and now I'm at the point of trying to press it out with a 10 ton press.... nothing really worked. I took off the knuckle and it's time for the press....
You guys are the best! Thank you for your dedication and time to make such quality videos on repairs. You are helping the common person save a ton of cash and gain invaluable knowledge about their vehicles. When time permits I ALWAYS get my parts from you guys! Thanks again!
Thank you so much for this post. I watched it several times before doing the install. I followed your instructions to the letter and it worked flawless. I just finished it about an hour and a half give or take. Took a few soda breaks. I did buy a 18mm with a swivel connected to it from NAPA prior to starting. It helped a lot getting to those hard to reach bearing bolts. Anyway thanks so much, real professional.
@Blackops353 When hubs go bad they generally cause a humming noise that will change pitch as you turn your steering wheel for curves. A whooping sound while accelerating sounds more like a problem with your airbox or intake hose in to the engine, or maybe your rear differential, could be a few different things.
@BOBKB3NZX If you mean where the hub flange bolts to the steering knuckle, yes you could use anti sieze there.
You may want to turn the wheel by hand to see if you can tell where the noise is comming from.
@russelln114 the hub can get seized on to the axle, then you will need a puller. I personally have not expreienced this. So chances are, on this type of hub, you can get it apart without the puller.
So your replacement hub *doesn't* come with a new O-ring? What about the axle nut?
@thebubbaking17 The basics should be similar, you may have to do a few different things to remove it from your truck. We currently do not have a repair video for that particular application. Thank you for checking out our auto repair channel. Have a great day!
@Bassman8519 It sounds as though there could be a piece of rust or something causing the hub not to sit flush. This would need to be cleaned and removed so that when you bolt the hub to the knuckle it sits flush.
Thanks for watching. 1aauto.com
@aldena91 A 4x4 blazer yes.
@robuss76 If you use the method shown in the video it should come loose for you. Some of them can be a little more stubborn than others.
Great video just did this job on a 96' blazer a little different than later models. Passenger side had a womp womp when I drove. In my model you do NOT have to remove the brake booster cable I learned this the hard way. And the wheel nut took a 36 mm socket. Use 18 mm short sockets to remove top nut on wheel bearing assembly. Clearance between the cv joint and balljoint nut is a little tight on the top nut. Other than that no problems and very simple to accomplish. Thanks for the video.
Firestone was going to charge me 300.00 to do the same job.
+Ben S Thanks for watching. We sincerely appreciate the suggestions for other DIY'ers! 1aauto.com
does the socket size for the hub nut apply to a gmc jimmy as well since they are the same thing as a blazer
It may be a different procedure on your application. We currently do not have an auto repair video for this particular year, make and model. Thank you for asking. 1aauto.com +Jim S
The hub nut on GMC Jimmy's are 35mm
@robuss76 Thanks for checking us out. Have a great day!
@Sneaky151 Yes, similar
very good video! going to get it done on 03 s10 tonight thanks for the info 1aauto!
This was a great video, gave me the information I needed to feel secure in attempting this myself with not a lot of experience. I gotter done! Thx
+Brian Markowitz Thank you! We love empowering our customers and showing how to perform DIY auto repairs with our high-quality auto parts. 1AAuto.com
Just ordered the Chevy S10 Blazer Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly for my 4wd...Great price I must say. Hopefully everything goes smoothly when I tackle this to install.
why am i not able to find the replacement hub assembly for a 97 *2WD* s10? plenty of them for the 97 4WD but nothing for 2WD... am i missing some knowledge here?
Thanks for the video it helped a bunch.
Duuude. I literally spent 6 hours on the side of a mountain trying to fix mine. It did NOT come off that easy. I had to sit here with a chisel and ballpeen hammer for 6 hours.
I STRONGLY suggest renting a hub puller.
Good point this video makes, USE JACK STANDS.
It's pretty common on vehicles with high mileage on them.
What size was the hub nut socket?
+Becky Jane The full instructions are listed on our website under the how to and tools section on the listing page. It states: Loosen your hub nut with your 35 mm socket. Thanks for watching!
Unfortunately at this time we do not have a video for the rear wheel bearings. The rears will require you to remove the axles from the vehicle to access them.
Has this video been made yet ?
The rears are going to be different than the fronts because the fronts are a wheel hub and bearing but the rears have an axle.
It is astounding to me how many pro techs use chrome with impacts.
@1aauto Item arrived 2 days after I purchased it. Finally have a day to install it but running into some problems. Seems the hub is rusted on and cant seem to pry it off. Used plenty of PB Blaster and still nothing. Tried your method in the video as well. Hopefully it comes loose soon. Maybe I should purchase a gear puller? Unfortunately my options are limited.I dont want to keep whacking it and possibly damage something.
It should be a fairly similar procedure, you wouldn't have an axle in the front to deal with though.
We show this at the begining of your video.
@1aauto yes, and the surface where the assembly meets the carrier hub.
@Spennyman10 You're welcome, thank you for watching our auto repair video. We offer a great selection on parts for your Chevy S10 on our website 1aauto.com
If you bought it from us and it showed an ABS sensor wire in the picture than it should have came with one, call our sales staff and they can help you out. If you bought it from someone else, there may be a tab on the hub or some way to attach it. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
You more than likely have a brake pad or a shoe that could be worn down making contact with the rotor or rear drum (if it has drum brakes in the rear). We carry new brake pads and rotor kits on our website with free shipping if you need them. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
You Saved me AGAIN! Thanks
Thank you for visiting our cannel on TH-cam. We can ship items that we stock to Canada.There would be a shipping fee to Canada. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
@thebubbaking17 its the same thing. only difference is you need a 3/8" allen wrench to remove the brake caliper
@mastermequon It depends on the type of driving you do, and also how many mile you put on the vehicle. We offer some great prices on the wheel bearing assemblies that fit your 2001 GMC S-15 Jimmy. Here's a link to them on our website.

It should come right off, you may have to tap the bearing with a sledge hammer to break it free.
@charlie3290 thats a good question ,1chevy s10/blazer model with 1000 front end issues X 1 sealed bearing=wear and tear the moment you leave the driveway
Thank you!
The center nut for a 2004 blazer is a 36mm
If it does this when you not on the brakes you may want to check the air pressure in the tires and possibly the alignment of the vehicle. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
You should be able to tap it out as shown in the video, you might be able to try a little PB Blaster on it if it's rusty and you need to free it up. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393
if everything is stuck (rotor,bearings on spline)bust out the heavy hammer.remove center nut,then tire.before removing anything else .spray some lube then grab a hammer and wooden block in case ur a bad shot and give the spline a few shots driving it into the bearing.if it goes in easy ur lucky and can just proceed with the rest of disassembly.if not u gotta hit it a little harder till it starts to travel into bearing.a little rust will bind them up good.
2002 s 10 4.3 l vortec v6 Extreme side step. first of all , let me thank you for your videos, im very gratefull fir all the money you saved me, with 4 kids , i cant afford to take my extreme to the mechanic. so again thnx. 1 quest. my truck is making a strange noise when I m breaking. not a squeal is more like a grind. only when I break slow and release and then brake. I hope that makes sense to you that's the only way I can explain. pls help. thank you and god blessy u and your loved ones!
@CanadianGM Use a rubber mallet, or a peice of wood and hit it with a hammer. Do not hit the rotor directly with a metal hammer unless you want to replace it.
some people say you need a puller to get the hub loose. I don't have a puller. Is it as easy to seprate the hub like you did with a screwdriver?
there is a separate clip on the harness that can stay in the frame, after you unplug the harness you can push down on the tab that the part of the connector that you removed(male side) was covering and slide the remaining plug (female side) off and out
Mike, I have a 2RWD '99 SLT but the hub I have is far different from yours (and others I have seen on the net). I have no spindle and the brake rotor does not come off (I have replaced many rotors over the years and all just seem to flop out).
Appreciate your insight.
I swear this truck is the easiest truck I've worked on in the 15 years I've been working on vehicles lol.
+Matthew Field Thanks for the feedback!
Would you consider it safe to apply anti seize around the surface of the bearing to prevent it being stuck?
Stubborn hub won't come off axle. Top bolt still in, very loose, but still in there. Cant get good purchase on first pry location in video, any suggestion s? Stumped at 5:25 in video
Hi, I have a 2004 Chevy Avalanche 1500 4x4 Z71 that needs the rear wheel bearings replaced. Do you have any videos pertaining to this, or any advice for my husband as he tackles this job?
Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
Wrong size wheel nut that's for s10. My 98 Jimmy is a 36
+bart kuester Thanks for the feedback!
Would this be close to a 2000 chevy silverado 4X4 hub replacement? Thanks....
Can those bearings be pressed out and replaced to save money?
Do you need wheel bearing grease
can you replace the abs wheel sensor without taking the bearing and axle nut off??
Now i knw who is the flash... lol..Thanks for showing me..
Sometimes they like to change something between years. Thanks for the heads up. Have a great day! 1aauto.com 888-844 -3393
Is an S10 going to have the same hub on all 4 wheels? Is the procedure to replace the rear ones the same?
I suppose its not that critical, but everything I look up for the hub nut tourqe spec. says "103" ft lbs, but you suggest "95 ft lbs.....I'm getting ready to do this to my 99 jimmy 4x4.....should I torque to 103 or 95? thanks
I bought a 2001 GMC Jimmy 3 years ago and had to replace the front left wheel bearing when i got it. last year i replaced the front right, and now the left is going out again? My mechanic says it's normal? Replacing the wheel bearings every three years? is he right???????
Grasiassss
Respond to this video... Check your trans fluid to if you have a manual trans.
My wheel hub is frozen to the spindle how do I break the hub free? Have tried prying, gear puller, it has moved approximately 1/4 inch.
What brand of socket you use??
I have applied a generous amount of PB Blaster but it is still frozen.
Hub nut removal
Where can I get the rubber o ring you showed remval of after you removed the hub. I just replaced hubs and axles and neither came new o rings and truck didn't have them.
+andrew lawson Unfortunately we do not carry the o-ring separately, and will likely be a dealer part only. We also recommend check out your local auto parts store to see if they have any to offer separately! www.1aauto.com
Hi i have a 2002 chevy blazer 2wd 4.3l sfi 6cyl and when i turn the wheels left or right it make a pop noise and also when i push the breaks it shakes no that bad but you can feel it, and when i back up very slow and turn the wheels right or left it wobbles (it feels like you fall in a small hole and out constantly) You think it could be the Hubs are wear out. Or what other Parts could be causing this problem. Thank You.. You Are a Big Help. :)
You may want to check the front steering and suspension pieces for wear.
my 02 sonomas doing the same jack ur ride up, leave the wheel on and shake the wheel side to side and up and down, loose up and down its balljoints left and right loose its tie rods adjust all that n see il let u know when i work on mine
If it makes a grinding noise at speed then it could be a bearing. But it sounds like a bad ball joint
Does a 99 Bravada have the hub nut????
Will this method work for a 1999 oldsmobile bravada??????
It would be the same procedure. Here's a link to the wheel bearings show in this video on our website. We also offer FREE SHIPPING in the lower 48 states. Hope this helps you out. www.1aauto.com/1A/front-wheel-bearings-and-hubs/Oldsmobile/Bravada/-/-/1999?VideoReply&TH-cam&ATony
where can i get the front dust shield?? mine is all rusted. everywhere i look its only rear ones.
We carry the rear ones. What's the year, make model of your vehicle. We can see if something that we can get for you.
and anyone in canada if you are near a canadian tire they loan tools for a deposit ( if you dont have the 36 mm socket, which is 25 bucks or more to buy)
does the center nut have to be done by a air gun? or will a breaker bar work?
Thank you for watching. A air gun will take it out easier however you should be able to do it with a breaker bar. Please let us know how the repair comes out!
1aauto.com 888-844-3393
Do you guys have video for removing the rear axle bearing on an 86 GMC s15 or do I have to remove the whole hub and shaft.
Thank you for watching. Unfortunately we do not have a video for your application. We will keep this repair in mind for future videos.

Anytime you are dealing with your brake pads, calipers. ect... you should wet them with soapy water and wear gloves to minimize your exposure to asbestos fibers. You won't know how bad it can hurt you until 20-50 years later.
+Randy Weber Thank you for checking us out, as well as the advice. This is certainly appropriate for safety and each viewers future. 1aauto.com
This is only true for older models (and usually only drum brakes) now the friction material is safe to handle.
If you're working on OLD cars with original brakes maybe, but modern brakes haven't had asbestos in them for decades now.
The lugs on this vehicle go to 100 ft/lbs. Not 75, if you use a good spec site like prodemand you will get better info on things like torque specs
your rotor just slips off. mine is very stuck
How can I get the hub but off without an impact? I tried a breaker bar and PB blaster but it wouldn't budge
Thank you for watching! Try using a bigger hammer and heating it up with a torch. Hope this helps!
888-844-3393
You need a cheater bar. I use a 10 foot long piece of 2" pipe, slip it over the breaker handle and use it for leverage. These axle nuts can be stubborn.
Thanks! We got it!
no it has just rubber groomet instead. definitely no hub nut.
Mike there seem to be 3 versions of the hub... I have a 4wd LS '97 Blazer. 4.3... Whick is correct? Thanks.
(it is the dash PUSH TO SELECT 4hi / 4lo version)
I asked for rear hub removal video
+Jeff Henderson Thank you for checking us out. You may view th-cam.com/video/h6OfNMfqyMs/w-d-xo.html for a rear application. 1aauto.com
