- 1976 Chevrolet C20 Front Wheel Bearing Replacement
76 Chevy C20 front wheel bearing replacement. Had a bad video file toward the middle of the video. Made the best of what I had. I apologize for that issue. I'm no professional, but I figured I'd share what I do to my own vehicles for the entertainment of it. Thanks for watching.

Great old school stuff, this is how we did it 50 years ago in shop class. I am still running the original rotors on my 72 Cheyenne( C20 8 lug wheels) They put a lot of meat on them back then. Guess it's about time to check out the bearings.
@@roncrawley6986 yes, they are pretty easy to work on. Good old truck!
Very useful video, thanks! Everything I needed to know.
Glad it was helpful!
Great video man
By the way you sound like Nicolas Cage
Super awesome
Wow, thanks!
I was thinking the same thing lol thanks for the video very helpful
You do need that much grease inside of there. It’s not ridiculous. Think about how much gets displaced from movement. It absolutely isn’t ridiculous.
What size wheel and tire ?
The truck has 16” wheels. Tires are 265/75/16 Pathfinders from Discount Tire. It’s a little wider tire, but they don’t rub at all.
Its like listening to nicolas cage.
Weird. I don't hear it. But I'll take that as a compliment!
Why would you post a video about something you don't much about. You're supposed to turn the wheel while you tighten the bearing nut with a torque wrench and then back off a little before you put the cotter pin in.
You are correct, tighten to seat the bearing then back it off a bit and put the cotter pin in. That's the procedure and that's what we did. It's been 3 years and it's been cruising right along. Darn good old truck. Not the prettiest thing, but it does its job. Needs some rust repair, but thats a whole other project.
What’s the torque?for me I didn’t spin the wheel and arm torqued it to 15 lbs then backed off I/4 turn.
