    Best video on youtube for this job and an Aussie car. Well presented and described also video production was great, you could actually see what was going on! Keep it up ! Now I got to find a video somewhere on how to do the rear on a crewman.

      I guessing your asking what wheel bearings to buy?
      These 3 no abs
      Abs with live axle
      Abs with irs

    Great video, just replaced my front right wheel bearing on my VZ today using your instructions. The bolts on the actual bearing hub were a bugger to get off!! but was expected as per video. Keep up the good work - 🍺cheers

    For everyone thats asking the rears are nothing like the front i would recommend you get a shop to do it mine were impossible to get out had to take the hole control arm off and press them out it was not fun at all on a hoist may be a touch bit easier.

      @@downtheshedwithbyron Yeah, well did it today, no problems, except used a brand new ebay supplied bearings and when test drove, was much worse than the original, sounded like it was about to come apart, and clearly felt through the steering wheel.
      Lucky enough, I had the other side changed by mistake, so that bearing should be ok, even if used, so I did it again, test drove, all ok.
      Your instructions were spot on and the 2nd time I had to do it, it took half the time.
      Next will be the brakes, that set up looks easier than with my motorbikes and this job gives me the confidence to do that when the time comes.
