Wheel bearings

[lucus30]

Buggered if I know lol.......

MR, how long would it take for an experienced person to do?

I had no idea what I was doing and knocked one side off in roughly an hour. This was just replacing the wheel bearings with new ones.

Just wheel bearings or a swivel hub rebuild? A full rebuild will take you the better part of a weekend mate.

Well you see, I thought that if you changed all the bearings, then it would a be a full rebuild, or can you just change those bearings that sit on top and bottom of the hub (whatever theyre called) without having to remove other bits n pieces.

In my case, the drivers side has a vusuble leak, the passenger side does not leak but have noticed one of the rubber seals is no longer sitting correctly and the wheel wobbles. So I was thinking I'd be up for a full rebuild as you showed in your thread

looks like I will have to tackle this job very shortly, will ha ve to get all the bits n pieces first. Tis a great write up MR but at the moment, I'm not confident lol

Pi55 easy Clunk. Even a bloke of your limited capabilities will romp it in
