Has anyone replaced a rear wheel bearing on a '91 Accord 2dr.? I have been asking people and get all kinds of answers. thanks, Chris

 

You don't say EX or LX, but it's about the same. Either way you have to take the brake off (rotor or drum). Underneath the disk (or drum) is the hub with it's 4 wheel studs. It's #1 in the picture. You have to buy it that way, can't buy JUST the bearing.

Pry off the cap #3. If you mangle it you may want to have a new one.

The spindle nut (#33) is staked into a groove on the spindle. You'll have to use a nail or a punch to bend it out so you can remove the nut. You'll see what I mean. From there it's easy.

I don't know the tightening torque for that nut, you'll want to look it up in a '91 repair manual. Then stake it into the groove & put everything else back together.

 

Thanks for your help and taking time to post a illustration, do you know if the nut is reusable?, believe it not, the bearing is cheaper at a Honda dealer then in the aftermarket. Chris

 

You're supposed to use a new spindle nut. I've re-used them on my car but I probablyl would not re-use them more than once. It beats em up to get staked & bent & staked again. Although that's on an extended collar without any threads.
