So iv'e decided to change my wheel bearing and have gotten stuck at one point. After i removed the front left wheel, i removed the caliper, rotor, cotter pin, and large nut.Then i proceeded to pull on the wheel hub without it moving at all. Am i missing something?? Thax for the help and i am looking forward on sharing my electric neon stories with the forum.

 

The bearings have to be pressed out of the hubs and the new ones need to be pressed in, find a shop and they should do it for about $20 bucks.

 

so i guess i have to remove the the entire strut assembley. i was planning on useing anouther bearing form a prats car that i have but i guess thats out of the question sincethe baring isa close tolerance fit. i did a search but couldn't find any writeups on this porcedure.

You can try a Hub Shark

I did use a friends at the track one time - worked well - just prefered using a machine shop!

 

aahhh...... thank you for the info. i was kinda trying to avoid alot of work, but seeing as the hub shark is out of my price range. i guess the shop is going to be the best option.

I agree - but when you are at the track on a Sunday - its nice to have friends that have one!

Otherwise I do the Machine Shop routine myself

If you watch Ebay - occasionally you can find one for half price (Used)
