I am planning to replace my wheel bearings soon but i dont want to go to a shop to do the whole thing. all i have to do is remove the rotor and caliper and get a slaphammer and get pull the hub out to get the shop to press out the old one and press in the new one right? after that, how would i get the hub back on? i remember my friend put a hub back on a while back and i was watching him, but i forgot what he did. TIA

 

anyone?

 

Which wheel bearing are you replacing?

 

O, its the front 2 wheel bearings

 

take the knuckle off and bring that to a shop. Have them press it out and put the new one in.

 

hey, would it be possible to use a ball joint press to press out the old bearing and the new one in? i went to a local shop and they want 40 per side if i take the knuckle to them and 85 each side if i give them the car.

What would be a reasonable price to pay to do my wheel bearings?

IDK but, i have to replace my driverside and the local shop i'm going to is charging me $80. and that's with them removing the knuckle, taking everything off, pressing the bearing in, and re-installing. to me that doesn't sound bad.
