great visual lesson from a time-served engineer. The care & attention is obvious, checking re-checking is a sign of somebody who knows what they are doing. Thanks
Good video, but a note. When you were driving in the new bearing (especially @ 6:25) you can see the tool was driving in via the inner race as the tool didn't go over the outer ring. That means all that force was getting transferred through the balls which is a really good way to damage it. You may want to make sure your tool is the same OD as the bearing next time to avoid that. You might even have a big socket that is a good match.
Just a key bit of information; keep the first two or three lug nuts that you damage to remove the hubs with instead of messing up all of your lug nuts. Use those lug nuts that was initially damaged to continue the job in case you need to replace the opposite side, etc; instead of ruining all of the lug nuts- they do cost quite a bit apiece!
I wondered why you didn't freeze the bearings before trying to whack them in, no mention of the Honda part number for the Bearing Puller, no obvious signs of grease, either stuffed into the bearing, nor where it is being inserted, but suppose it was a harmless way to spend a few minutes

Thanks Mate! Very helpful! Especially when you said "About the same as a sparkplug", good comparison :)
Haha my wife does that all the time to my videos too! "Im sorrrrrrry!" Very funny

A good video with proper tools,and yet the armchair mechanics still want to dissect and add their two bobs worth

Hello Do you sell this great tool?
Or maybe you can tell me where could I buy one?thanks
You don't need to check with your finger ! When the bearing's in place, the noise is different.
He wasnt, he was checkjng the centre cylinder piece hadnt fallen over inside hub..
You didn't use any greese ??
Were to buy to special tool ?
You dont need it, just use the old bearing shell to drive it home
