0:05so this is the this is the noise that
0:06we're faced with now when i move the car
0:22now if you didn't know any better you'd
0:23say that would be like
0:25great it almost sounds like the back
0:27plate is creaking or rubbing or
0:29something
0:30but it is in fact the wheel bearing
0:31that's collapsed
0:33so let's get that changed over
0:54so just drop the handbrake off and
1:04a lot of creaking going on in there
1:07let's get this off and have a look
1:24right so to get this wheel bearing off
1:25what have we got to do we've got to
1:27release this center nut
1:29which is a 12-sided um 30 millimeter
1:32nut so that's got to come off we've got
1:35to take the brake caliper off
1:37we've got to take the disc off we've got
1:39to take the drive shaft out
1:40so these things not a massive amount of
1:43work but
1:44let's crack on and see if we can get it
1:45done okay so we've got you in the back
1:48there
1:49first we're going to do is take this
1:50brake get the brake caliper off now what
1:52you've got here is these little
1:53plastic tab things that you push out the
1:55back there
1:56they come out the little caps which
1:58reveals an allen key bolt behind
2:00so we'll do both of those one at the top
2:02one at the bottom
2:09and then what we need to do is get a
2:12little allen key in there
2:14and this particular one is a uh
2:17seven millimeter allen key so pop that
2:20in there
2:23let's see if we can get get the
2:26milwaukee electric in there
2:34and what you get now is these kind of
2:36long long bolt things
2:39so they're a slider and a bolt all in
2:41one
2:42i don't know if we can get it in on that
2:44one
2:46let's have a look
2:51there's an extension on it
3:00something along those lines and then
3:03bring that right
3:04into there
3:28there it is so that's rid of them too
3:32and now the caliper we've got to be
3:34careful about the uh
3:35i'll pop the sensor wire out of the
3:38caliper itself to give us a bit more
3:40maneuverability but now that's about
3:42okay this is your caliper
3:44retainer here we just push it and just
3:46pull those out
3:48like that and then that one's away now
3:50the caliper itself
3:51is just hanging there and we should be
3:53able to release that like that
3:55and then that comes out so we've got
3:58we can rest that up the top out of the
4:00way
4:02get that up there like that got the
4:04brake pad as well these are quite new
4:05look we've got plenty of meat on them
4:06which is a good now i've just got to get
4:08this retaining bracket out of the way
4:10so once again you're on the back this is
4:12held in with two
4:1416 millimeter
4:18bolts one at the top up there and get
4:21that on there
4:23these are going to be tight i might need
4:25to get a bigger bar on it
4:26this one is probably not good enough oh
4:29she's tired
4:37oh yeah
4:43what i've got is the hollow hollow pole
4:45which will slide over that
4:47knuckle bar and give me a bit more
4:53just a bit more leverage all the
4:56difference
5:01that's one of them undone and the bottom
5:04one
5:07then we're going to get the bar on that
5:20[Music]
5:28yeah that's practical all right
5:33now we can try and get that electric
5:35ratchet in there
5:43a little extension maybe
6:05[Music]
6:18okay
6:30that's what went out
6:42and now this whole bracket will come
6:44away the caliper brackets off
6:47brilliant okay so now we've got a clear
6:51run at the disc
6:52so we're going to take off this we're
6:55going to remove this
6:56allen key bolt here
7:00which is uh
7:03six millimeter so same thing again
7:16that out of there
7:19hopefully with a little tap with a
7:21copper mop we'll get the disc off
7:24there we go cop right hammer
7:44tight it's tight it's a tight one
7:48it's not playing ball just yet
8:10so
8:13that's got it
8:25and there it is that's your brake disc
8:28there
8:29completely obviously it's nicely vented
8:31and you've got your little handbrake
8:32liner inside
8:34where the handbrake catches onto
8:41so now you can see the handbrake shoes
8:43as well so we've got a little handbrake
8:47these was handbrake brake shoes
8:51and then this is the
8:55it's not very nice it's not very nice
9:00it's checking out racket so we've got to
9:02get this hub off this is the
9:04the first port of call is to remove this
9:06so what we're going to do is get this
9:08driveshaft out now we'll remove the
9:10drive shaft then we'll get a good shot
9:11at
9:12pulling this hub off stick with it there
9:15is a plan there somewhere
9:17all right there's a tab on the on the
9:20nut
9:21we shouldn't need to do anything with it
9:24with the old milwaukee
9:26so we'll see if it can shift it
9:37straight off no problem look at that you
9:40can see on the nut there the tab
9:42is just ripped out
9:45so now the drive oh you can actually see
9:47now we've cracked that off this has all
9:49become really
9:50loosey-goosey and horrible which is
9:52another sign that that bearing is
9:53completely shot
9:55um let's get the driveshaft out so we've
9:57got to take off
9:58the uh external these are external torx
10:02bits
10:03on the uh in the drive shaft there so
10:05let's get that on done then we can take
10:06the whole shaft out
10:08okay so here under the under ear in the
10:11mucky bits
10:13let me spin you around a second
10:17all right hey so we're getting into the
10:21depth of it now under here
10:23and what you've got is okay
10:26so here we go this is your driveshaft
10:28inner cv and we've got to take off these
10:32these nuts here all these bolts
10:35so let's have a look see what size they
10:37are
10:42yeah is that one it's tight these are a
10:47e and e 12 so they're an e 12 socket
10:51to get these off so let's have a bash at
10:54them
10:55see if we can shift them
11:06you can put the handbrake on and uh
11:09lock them off with a with a bar or
11:11something what a try with the impact
11:13let's see if they if they'll come up
11:14with this
11:17there's one
11:27and i'll turn the turn the hook around
11:29and we'll get on to the next one
11:38and i've got the uh impact universal
11:41joint as well which is an
11:42amazing bit of kit
11:48this universal joint it doesn't fling
11:50when you put it on an impact gun
11:52whereas a normal one just you lose all
11:53of your you drive through it
11:56these are brilliant links in the
11:57description again
12:12each two of these comes with a little
12:15retainer
12:23last two
12:29and last but not least is this one
12:36oh
12:50that driveshaft should come away
12:55i should be able to work that off of
13:04there
13:13with a little bit of genital persuasion
13:21there we go so up and over here's the
13:23weight
13:25up and over and then we're just going to
13:26knock this through now from this
13:29then we'll just knock that through
13:31holding on to the driveshaft from the
13:33other side
13:35i'll give it a little tap with the uh
13:41you should be able to get that through
13:56again copper ammo so it doesn't destroy
13:58the end of the
14:00end of the drive shaft there
14:03[Music]
14:15put my socket on
14:30there we go
14:37and that's the drive shaft out so if you
14:39needed to change your driveshaft
14:41that's the same way and you might well
14:42need to change one
14:44because these abs rings corrode
14:48and can cause all kinds of problems uh
14:55this one i'll give this a little bit of
14:56a clean up on the end before i put it
14:57back in again
14:58but yeah that's your shaft you've been
15:01shafted
15:02right then
15:06now we've got a oh look at this
15:10oh how bad is that is that really shows
15:13it up now how bad this bearing is
15:16so the next step we've got to get this
15:19out of the end of there
15:20so what we're going to do is uh i'm
15:23going to get the tool for the job
15:25i'll put the link in description this is
15:27the free tech
15:28bearing puller off of amazon
15:36okay okay so here we go this is the
15:37three tape pull up i've got a full
15:39review on this
15:40um so i'll put the link in the
15:41description again um
15:44but it's got loads of goodies in it
15:47perfect for all of these situations so
15:50let's have a look and see what we've got
15:52in here for this one
15:54first things first we've got to get this
15:55hub off you get these uh
15:58these long threaded bars we need to find
16:00the right one for this car which just
16:02happens to be that one which was a good
16:03guess on it
16:04i've been picked up an old splitter
16:08um something i've got to get but i've
16:11had to borrow this one but
16:12anyway let's um let's try and get this
16:14in the back there
16:38what's up
17:03something's happening
17:43[Applause]
17:44shhh
17:58[Applause]
18:11[Applause]
18:15gotcha
18:26well that took some shifting didn't it
18:29took a bit of shifting in
18:38it was extremely tight in the end
18:41it's off now
18:48what we're doing without that we wanted
18:51on it would we want to got it off
18:54right let's get this sorted then right
18:56let's get this old circlip out of here
18:58so we'll give that a squeeze and that's
19:01the retaining circlip
19:03out we've got a nice big set of uh
19:09got this lovely set of circlip pliers um
19:12not an expensive set again but it's good
19:14enough to do the job
19:15so that's that out of there now then the
19:18bearing puller
19:19what i've got here is
19:22the nice large cup at the set that will
19:25fit on this side
19:26we've got the bolt we've got the bearing
19:28shim so
19:29we can put that into there i've got a
19:33nice spacer to go on the back and then
19:35we can wind that through
19:40like so then we've got the big knot to
19:43go on the back as well
19:44so let's get all that on and get that
19:47wound up
19:57all right now we've got to make sure is
19:58that we get this nice and central
20:01so as long as it's pretty center on that
20:05get that in somewhere about right
20:10i'll peg that nut at the back on my
20:18grips
20:31something like that let's get this right
20:34again
20:35so now we're pulling in centrally
20:40okay this is a 32 millimeter
20:44knotted on the end of that
21:00and we'll just
21:05gently wind it in
21:12that's coming down onto that onto that
21:15there which is
21:16which is good okay all right let's
21:19see how we get on
21:24something's happening
21:30it's coming so now i know it's moving
21:34just bang that onto the gun definitely
21:37something's moving there
21:49[Applause]
21:56so
22:28bingo
22:34one fairy pulled out the hook
22:52and there it is look at that that's the
22:54old one
22:55absolutely skank to hell
22:58right good bit of kit the tall isn't it
23:02works well when you well once we got
23:04over his initial
23:06there's initial pain it's it's worked
23:09really good
23:10so let's give this a this is going to
23:12need a really good clean out in here
23:15make sure that it's uh it's all clean
23:17we'll get some uh
23:18we'll get some cleaner in there a bit of
23:21carb
23:22cleaner we'll just uh spruce that up a
23:25bit
23:26so we got a bit of the old car cleaner
23:38give that a really good cleaning side
23:39there
23:42make sure there's no crud left in there
23:45any nastiness
23:46i think you might just get a bit of a
23:49light emery in there as well
24:06yeah that's better now we're going to
24:08put a little bit of grease inside before
24:10we put the bearing in
24:12just to make it go in nice and smooth so
24:14what we've got here
24:15this is the new bearing kit um straight
24:18off of amazon
24:19the number on that box there is 26310
24:23or the long one three three four one six
24:25seven six two three one seven
24:27s one and this is the one series uh
24:30three one eight
24:32and it's uh sixty oh i can't remember
24:35it's i think it's a it's a
24:36uh 63 plate um
24:40it's on a private reg but anyway in the
24:42box lot so we get
24:44brand spanking new circlip which we know
24:46we're going to need
24:47we also get a nice new castle nut there
24:50and the bearing so let's have a look
25:01super de dupa looking very nice
25:05and uh it's gonna fit a treat look
25:08that's gonna go in beautiful that
25:10so we go we've got a spacer here this
25:12one is the um
25:1871.71.5 millimeter
25:20which is absolutely perfect for that
25:22that's going to drive that in beautiful
25:24so that's the one we're going to use to
25:25put it in
25:26um
25:30all right like i said let's put some
25:31grease around it
25:33it's not a sided bearing but um we'll
25:35put the stampings to the outside on this
25:40one
25:42okay all right let's get a bit of grease
25:44in there let's get
25:45just a splodge in all the way around the
25:47inside of that
25:49and that will just help it go in
25:54okay there's a nice new bear in that so
25:56just drop that in there
25:57ready to go in now on the back
26:00we need pretty much the reverse of what
26:04we had
26:05um we need a spacer that's going to sit
26:08on the outside of
26:10the hook there like that one there so if
26:13i can get that in
26:14around the back if i've got enough room
26:16we'll just have a little look
26:25yeah that's perfect so we'll get that
26:29there
26:30we can get the one that we want to drive
26:32it in with which i said was that one
26:34that's going on the front so that can go
26:36through
26:46that is going straight through there
26:48straight through there and straight
26:49through there
26:50and it's big knot it's going straight on
26:52the back
26:53of all of that
27:08like that and now that should all be
27:11in line perfectly
27:17i'll just grab all of that again
27:32do it by hand
27:54you can see how easily that's pulling
27:57back in
28:05like a dream
28:43there it is right up nice and tight
28:48and we'll just release that
28:55like so
29:10foreign
29:23okay that's this big off big cup
29:27out the back and then spacers out of
29:30there
29:33there we go and that tool has done its
29:36job
29:38that bearings in beautiful and then we
29:39need his new circlip
29:42so we'll get that and we put that in his
29:44circlip pliers
29:46and we'll try and get that in nicely
29:52i mean look at that it's just absolutely
29:55beautiful
29:57beautiful it's a good start it's a good
30:00start that's there
30:01right then next step is to remove
30:06that from that so uh let's give that a
30:08go um
30:09easy just to cut that off with the angle
30:11grinder i could attempt it with this
30:13splitter
30:14so we have a go should we try and get it
30:15with a splitter and pull it off
30:33get that sandwiched into the into the
30:48gap
31:05and then let's crank that up
32:15gotcha well that worked well done
32:36job in a town that is wow
32:39what a bit of loving that again we'll
32:42give this a little cleanup
32:43and then that'll be ready to go back
32:45through and into the uh
32:47into the hub again
33:08uh
33:10okay that's a bit of grace on that
33:25and then we're going to press that in
33:26again with this tool we need
33:28this time to get the spacer on the back
33:30that sits inside
33:31that one there so that it doesn't push
33:34the race out the back so we get that on
33:35the other side okay okay
33:40so we give that a clean up there we've
33:42got a bit of grease around it now
33:44and we're going to go straight back in
33:46through there now we've got to make sure
33:47we've got the spacer
33:49on the back side that sits inside the
33:52race
33:53so that the the back race won't push
33:56through
33:57so we'll go with that one there we've
33:59got the big
34:01the big bar that goes all the way
34:03through that's sitting on the outside of
34:05the hub there
34:06we'll get the spacer there on the back
34:22and then we can also get the nut on
34:24whatever i've done went up
34:29i've got the nice knot here as well on
34:31the back
34:57okay so just try and make sure that
35:00we're all pretty
35:02pretty central that everything's lined
35:04up as it should be
35:11that's not there at the minute
35:20some skewers
35:49[Music]
36:05[Music]
36:09there it is that now is that looks
36:12pretty straight
36:20okay let's get that gripped at the back
36:24onto the big knot
36:28like that and then we can have a go with
36:31uh slowly
36:32winding this one in with the big the big
36:35bar again
36:43okay nice and gentle just slowly as she
36:46goes and it will find its own way there
36:48it will start to go and it should be
36:51reasonably
36:52reasonably loose
37:19now we're going into the second half
37:34again it's not too tight
37:57all the way in
38:13where's that out
38:27that's the spacer out the nut on the
38:30other
38:36beautiful bearing in there
38:41sweet is it not how lovely is that right
38:44now we can start to rebuild
38:46we can start to put it back together
38:47again we can get the drive shaft back
38:49through
38:50and uh we need to give that a clean
38:53first so don't worry
38:54okay so the drive shaft we've got here
38:57it's a bit cruddy on the end so let's
38:59just give that a we'll give that a bit
39:01of a wiping
39:02down and get the emery on it again
39:16now this this needs to be clean because
39:17that face there sits right into the back
39:19of that bearing
39:20and it's going to pull it up really
39:22tight so we need that to be free of dirt
39:24and debris
39:25and again we're going to try and just
39:26clean around this top face here as well
39:29just make make sure there's no crud
39:31there but we've got to be careful of the
39:32rubber seal we don't want to uh
39:34upset that too much
39:42i think that's about as good as it's
39:44going to get it's got some corrosion
39:45there but we can't do a great deal about
39:47that
39:47so uh yeah let's uh let's get this back
39:50in the uh
39:51back in the car we'll get a bit of
39:53grease on the end of that as well
39:54just a small amount around the back of
39:56that
39:58around the end of that just a
40:01very thin skin and uh and on the splines
40:05as well
40:06just to help it out going through
40:10there we go all right let's get that
40:12back on the car
40:14okay so we slide it in
40:32just rotate it as i'm pushing it in and
40:35hopefully it will
