Hi, the nut (NT610041J) has to be torqued to a specific torque and not like you did it Jesse with an impact gun. You will probably burn the new bearings. You have to use hand tools on these old Jags.
Once the nut is torgued, you have to move the hub few times in both directions and after that you have to undo the nut. Repeate once or twice. The last step is to install the nut back, but this time only by hand (no tools!!!). Once you make it as tight as possible with you fingers, check for any excesive play in the hub rotation. If none is present put the nut locker and the pin back. Now the bearings are not too loose to wobble and not the tight to burn and damage them.
nice , inflation sucks i remember buying a full hub assembly back in like 2009 for 120$ lol , so glad to see other people who love the old jaguars , im surprized your viewcount is so low on this with your subscriber count so high ? this should have a thousand views
Yeah, inflation be hitting hard! I got lucky with the hub I got it for $60 at my local junkyard. Most of my subscribers are from other car videos, but I'm grateful for everyone who appreciates my videos and stops by and leave a comment. Have a great day!
@@XJJesse thats a good deal , if you ever cant find a part i got 2 extra jags i could send you a part for the price of shipping just as a gift , 60s a good deal , fuck yeah
Jesse,
Mucisimas gracias,
You have the patience of a Saint.
My 97 XJR6 will live longer because of you!
Well done!
De nada! Patience is key when it comes to these Jags, Thank you for your kind words.
Quality content as always my guy.
Happy to see my Jag isn’t the only one that gives its owner grief. 😅
Thank you so much for your support! Yea, owning a Jaguar comes with its fair share of challenges, but I gotta a lot of love for them. Can't give up on my Jag!
buying you another coffee for that helpful video!
Thank for the video, love how your Journey with jag is going, also a tip clean off the bearing and check it for wear and use a bearing grease pack tool
Jesse, thank's for making this video. I know it makes the job quite a bit harder if you have to explain everything as you do it.
You're right! explaining each step and adjusting the camera does add time to the process, but it's worth it if it helps others learn and understand better. Thanks for understanding 😊
@@XJJesse It cirtainly helps when I have a job to do on my X300.
Hey everyone hit the thumbs up 👍 button 👍 Jesse is the man..awesome video brother. I wish I could find jaguar parts around here there scarce.
Good stuff. I just had my windshield replaced for under $300. Looks like you could use one too. Mine was only two inches but had the crack right in my line of sight.
Thanks! I haven't looked into pricing for a windshield replacement yet, but it's great to hear that you got a great deal.
Good job! Happy XJ40 to the rescue! I have to change the head gasket on mine this spring.
Awesome video
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed the video. 😎
@XJJesse I have an X308 XJR and basically same jobs, replaced the sway bar links and trunk lid man thanks. You in Cali too?
I got lucky on mine, the wheel bearing nut was just loose.
Nice, I'll be making a 'how to' video soon, so stay tuned! I appreciate your support!
So, if the wheel bearing starts to show wear on these, you only have a few miles before you really get into trouble? I need to change on my two ones this year, as they are just slightly getting there, no noise or sound, just a little bit to loose. Front on both. (XJR and Daimler Six).
Please let me know if you saw any other 95 / 97 XJ's with front passenger / driver wheel hubs / knuckles / assemblies, PLEASE.
Unfortunately, this time I didn't come across any other XJ6 with front wheel hubs assemblies during my visit to the Newark, California junkyard. But I'll definitely keep an eye out for them in the future.
@@XJJesse Hoping like hell you spot some...
...
Also I hate saying this, I ain't rubbing it in but,
I told you.
I told you to check those wheel bearings.
(I forget which video I told you though, I think it was the one where your front tires were wearing out on the inside)
are the rear bearing similar? I need to do the right side rear but I haven't yet as it's cold and winter sucks. Weather's getting warmer finally and it's a job I gotta deal with sooner rather than later. Haven't find much documentation about it online anywhere. For my subaru I have a factory service manual, but i've not found a good one for the Jag yet.
love your videos Jesse. I wonder if, in your experience, these XJs are prone to failure, or is it just a regular case of any 30-40 year old car?
I just saw that you have another video all about that. My new one is a 1991.
In the case of this kind of wheel bearing, it was kind of standard on so many older cars, along with trailers and pickups. It can happen.
Dave as a Jaguar owner of two Jaguars X300s like Jessie, the issue by now if these cars are driven daily , like me in my case is that the bearings are by now 30 years old ( if the cars was made in 1994), so it is normal for the grease inside to melt with time and gets dirty and damage the bearing. I have to replace my rear right axel hub as the bearing is already making a noise too, The car is at 170,000.00 miles. My other daily driver Jag is at 95,000.00 miles, so I will also preventatively open all 4 hubs and re-grease them with fresh grease to save the bearings. The original ones if I recall correctly are Timkens.
thanks for the detailed response@@martinpopov6174
Hey Jesse if you don’t find parts for your Jag at your local auto parts, did you have any good website to buy the parts?
What junk yard do yu to in Newark?
Imagine the other washer got stuck too💀💀
Oh hell naaah, That would have been all bad! 🥲
