You can buy a cheap press from Harbor Freight for like $130.

It's easier to do them on the car. I took my spindles off thinking the same thing, I'm not paying for something so simple. I always heard "take it to (insert random auto shop) and they do it for $20". It turned out that nobody wanted anything to do with it until I went to a shop off of London Bridge. He said he'd do it but it required him to put together a special jig and said that if I had driven the car in it would have cost me about the same thing.

yessir it is.

much less hassle

pop out the axle, bolt the spindle back up, slide hammer the hub out, use a "on car bearing press", press the bearing out, replace bearing, and then use the same tool and press the bearing back in, press the hub back in, put on rotor, and caliper, finally the wheel


its cake work dude, if you are mechanically inclined you can do it..


PS: it helps if you have a impact gun worth a shit

Default Re: Wheel Bearings

Really? Damn.. might as well do that.. I have one bearing that needs to be done, my front is a hub and bearing all in one sorta deal.... I guess it might be easier to track down a shop with an on car bearing press...
