  • This video will show you how I replaced the front wheel hub and bearing on a 1999 Toyota Camry V6. The replacement video was made possible by GMB Corporation who was kind enough to provide OE (Original Equipment) quality replacement parts to perform this service. GMB is a Japanese auto parts manufacturer established in 1943 and maintains a global presence in the auto parts industry. Thank You GMB!
    The wheel bearing is recessed and pressed fitted into the steering knuckle and the wheel hub pressed into the inner race of the wheel bearing. The GMB provided FWD wheel hub and bearing came together as a kit. The kit used in this video can be applied to a 95' - 04' Avalon, 02' - 03' Camry and 99' - 03' Solara. To perform this job, you will need: 1. High torque impact tool with a 32 mm 6 point socket 2. Wheel Bearing Service Kit. 3. Slide hammer with a hub adapter. 4. Snap ring pliers to compress a snap ring. 5. Torque wrench rated to 180 lbs.

    Excellent video....I really liked how you fast forwarded - when you did. Made the viewing much more fun to follow. Just show the "meat" - which is what you did....thanks!
    Just one thought about these, and other Toyotas.....You can unbolt the ball joint at the bottom, instead of undoing the strut bolts. Sometimes, on some models, either a different size bolt, or an eccentric one is used for the strut, and the camber is set with that. If you undo the BJ (just 3 bolts) you get about the same freedom of movement (to pull the axle out of the hub) too, without risking the alignment being disturbed. For what that's worth.....

    • @hardlymovingpro
      @hardlymovingpro  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks for you comments! I use to unbolt from the bottom. Found unbolting from the top easier and doesn't affect alignment.

    • @stephenbay9564
      @stephenbay9564 3 роки тому +3

      @@hardlymovingpro Yes, you are right.....Just saying, THE way to adjust camber is to either use a smaller diameter bolt as the lower of the two bolts for the strut (and this IS per Toyota shop manual), or put an eccentric bolt in there. IF they did NOT do this, and the two original, full size bolts are there, then yes, just removing them will not affect the alignment.

Quick question, sometimes i am confused which way bearing to be taken out (meaning pulled outside towards you, or pulled inward out of you). any tips.. can i assume that where every spring clamp is removed, that is the side bearing have to be taken out.. ?

    • @hardlymovingpro
      @hardlymovingpro  3 роки тому +1

      It all depends on the manufacturer's design. On Toyota (Lexus) vehicles, there's a lip on the outside outer hole of the knuckle (facing you) to prevent the bearing from coming out. The other side of the knuckle hole (with the snap ring) is where the bearing gets pressed out or in. The snap ring, once removed, allows the bearing to be pressed in or out.

    Awesome video. I'm hoping you can offer some advice... i just changed my hub & bearing, but now my car sounds louder... like a whirling noise when i speed up. Before it used to only be like a hum... or howling... not to noticeable (only by me cuz I know my car) but now it's very noticeable (sounds like a race car inside). Would I have perhaps damaged the bearing? I did everything much much like you did (except using an impact gun).

    • @hardlymovingpro
      @hardlymovingpro  3 роки тому +1

      It's either low quality bearings, the hub isn't completely seated against the cv housing (re torque the axle nut) or the bearings have been damaged during installation.

    In your experience have you ever come across the splines in the hub that are so worn that it requires renewing?I have 196 k miles on my sienna and will be changing out the front wheel bearings soon as well as the axles. I will be installing genuine toyota axles. So I was wondering if it makes sense at all to put new oem hub as well or reuse the old ones. Thoughts?

    • @hardlymovingpro
      @hardlymovingpro  2 роки тому

      Not wear but rather corrosion that prevents the axle shaft from separating for the hub during servicing. From my experience, high miles and age do not wear out wheel bearings on Toyota's; rather continuous driving with unbalance wheels or out-of-round tires.

    • @abyssalsoul6216
      @abyssalsoul6216 2 роки тому

      @@hardlymovingpro As always , thank you for your response. Fortunately I'm in South Florida and don't have the corrosion issue like vehicles where roads are salted during winter. I have changed out the axles before due to failed boots and did not have any difficulty them from the hub. I made sure to lubricate the splines generously during installation. What are your thoughts about front wheel bearings wearing with mileage. Do the bearings pretty much hold up its till they fail for whatever reason? With the after market axles I find , even when new, that there is some vibration especially when accelerating or when driving up slopes as in mountainous areas. My suspension components are all good LCAs, ball joints , tie rod ends and so forth. There is consensus in many forums that toyotas are very " sensitive" to the kind of axles installed. So in essences my query regarding the bearings is whether to preemptively change them at the time of axle installation. With a history of second generation having to change front wheel bearings between 120 -175 k miles I just wonder if it makes sense. I don't want to "double work" . My time is free however and thanks to you the average DIYer can accomplish many maitenace tasks due to your excellent videos

      Yes it would. This video covers from 1992 to 2004. If you stripped the ball joint castle nut, I'd remove the knuckle off the control arm and work on removing the joint on a shop bench.

    Just wanted to give everyone a heads up: I bought the Astro 78825 XL “Master Front Wheel Drive Bearing Adapter Kit” that is linked in the description and it is of very low quality. I got the job done but my 1/2” Milwaukee impact absolutely destroyed the adapter plates, washers, hex nut (forcing screw) and nut adapter. There was metal shavings and dust flying EVERYWHERE. I had to stop to blow out the hub bore every 30 seconds so that the metal dust doesn’t get trapped in there between the new bearing and hub surface.. If you can afford something better like OTC, or even rent an OTC adapter kit at a parts store, go that route. Astro’s warranty is only 1-year from date of first use, but once that’s gone the tools will still fail under the same conditions.

    Finally got a craftsman slide hammer kit, the Maddox bearing press kit and a picking up a new hub and bearing later today. Going to be doing this job this afternoon. I’m hoping my 500 lbs/ft ryobi p262 impact will be enough to press that bearing out. I’ll be finding out this afternoon. Otherwise I’ll be using a breaker bar and a cheater and lots of cursing for elbow grease. I’ve seen someone do this with an older HF half inch earthquake that put out around 550 lbs/ft so I think I should be good.

      @@hardlymovingpro learned a valuable lesson today. Make sure your parts are correct / the cv axle spindle fits the hub spline before you begin assembly. The hub and bearing I purchased were for a Corolla. The bearing was right but the spline in the hub was about 1/4” too small and I didn’t realize it until it was too late. Also I think I purchased a counterfeit timken bearing or maybe I was pressing in the bearing a bit cockeyed and the 2 dozen hammer smacks on the knuckle didn’t correct the trajectory. I totally destroyed the threads on the forcing screw so I had to take the knuckle off and use my 3# metal mallet to pound it the rest of the way with one of the press plates in between the bearing face and hammer blows. when I pounded the hub spindle in it seemed like the bearing had split down the middle and pushed through the back side. I pounded it back together and it was noisy when I spun it. I was going to assemble it ride the car to a junkyard tomorow and grab a loaded knuckle off a 2008 sienna for $55 but it looks like I’ll be taking a bus tomorow.
      I believe the press I got was the old pitsburgh model before they upgraded to Maddox. I bought it a month and change ago which is unfortunate because recently someone posted a used Astro pneumatic set on marketplace which supposedly has a much better quality forcing screw. My impact was just barely strong enough to do the work. If I had more cash I definitely would have gotten a hydraulic knock out punch or the high torque ryobi impact. But looks like I’ll be buying a forcing screw and nut to replace the ruined one unless I can get harbor freight to warranty this out.
      I’ll definitely be doing this task again on the passenger side before that bearing fails and now I know what to look for and what not to do it will be much easier. The craftsman slide hammer kit was very high quality for the $140 out the door price. But I was very disappointed in the quality of the harbor freight FWD bearing press kit. Hopefully I can get it warrantied out and the new Maddox one is better.

    I notice the slide hammer puller is being used incorrectly. One of the nuts on the shaft should be installed behind the bolt adapter and tightened. Then when using the hammer, the impacts will not be only on the shaft threads alone. Instead, the pull force will be on both the nut and threads together. That is why they provide two nuts.

    One problem I ran into was after removing the spindle/hub assembly the inner race came out with the hub assembly and the seal remained attached to the bearing and hub bore. The seal needs to be removed otherwise it will create resistance trying to press out bearing because the seal is distorted and binds and interferes with the removal of the remainder of the press in bearing. Once removed the process worked accordingly.
