Has anyone replaced a rear wheel bearing at all?

It looks to me like you push the inner splined section out(which also has the wheel backing plate on it) then push the bearing from the hub, then push the bearing onto the wheel backing plate, then push the backing play onto the front of the frontnof the hub.

It looks like fun but might pop by he specialist tomorrow and wave £10 in front of them if insteuggle at the local all makes garage as they have a 20ton press and I know the local specialist are a bit iffy about doing such jobs  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Kind of weegie

I'm sure in my kit I have the right sized spacer/press to force the hub out and then force the bearing off the arm but I'm but sure it will come off that easy without the faff of a three pronged puller/grip.

I suppose if I get it out of the arm I can always use a 1mm cutting disc to get the old one off and then just a press to get the new one on...

Might have to document the process FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

I tried to get the hub out of the carrier on the rear... took whole hub off, 20ton press, pumped it to about 23tons... didn't move a mm....

Might have had a dodgy hub but be prepared for a fight....  Pete

Great

Might try a bit of heat on it after I remove the abs sensor to protect it from the heat I may end up using.

Hopefully if I can get the hub wheelplate pushed out of the bearing first then it will make half the job easier

Where there's a will there's a way well I hope it stays true!! FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

If you get the sensor out, I bet it breaks, or the wire pulls off it, last one I changed took a die grinder to get it out...  Pete

Even more good news lol

Best start soaking it in the morning and just take my time with it  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's

Needs a hydraulic press to push it out, not a DIY job

Some of us have hydraulic presses,

Unfortunately I'm not one of them

Although plenty of box section and the formations of a plan... Ed

Well it's done!

Tried a local hydraulic press but it just wouldn't fit.

Hate that it defeated me but for the time I would have spent fancying around with it and what the local LR specialist charged me to do it in happy enough.

Dropped it at 1, picked up at 5 and cost £30. Forgot to take a pic but the bits they have for doing it are like a puller and a press! Quite good I thought  FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
