I knew what I was doing before watching this video. I just wanted to make sure there were no silly tricks that I would have missed. I did bearings on a Cavalier I was driving a year ago. and the first one I did (right front) was siezed in place. It literally took me getting angry with an air chisel. Full arm and shoulder strength to get them to separate. My friend and I banged away with hammers for almost an hour until we stopped and started watching videos thinking we missed something. My tip, penetrating oil. Don't cheap out.. Maybe get some emery cloth and clean out the rust and use antisieze on the new bearing when it goes in so it doesn't sieze in there like mine did if you ever have to change it
Great video! You make your videos down to earth and not all technical. Thanks. My abs inop light and brake light is on. But my e brake works fine. Have good brakes and fluid is full. Thinking I need to do this on mine
Sonos and use any kind of gasket or any kind of oil anything between the new Bern assembly any actual for an actual word slides and it’s just metal on metal I guess otherwise very helpful let’s see how it works out my first time
"I don't know what the torque specification is for this, but I'm just going to tighten it nice and snug". Really?? No concern of driving down the road, and the hub coming loose? No concern of the wheel possibly coming off? They are torqued from the factory for a reason. Hopefully they won't come loose on you.
Meh, if your strong enough youll go past torque spec anyway. I do all the time and im a girl. Just thought i need to get a torque wrench for this job bc its a tire and plus i always over load and end up breaking shit.
As strong as your critique is, I'd love to know your answer. Unless you happen to be the type to point out the obvious, while never providing a solution.. I read earlier today that the torque spec was 63 ft-lbs and I snapped the bolt before I even got there... Still can't find a community consensus, or PDF explicitly mentioning the torque spec for these hub assembly bolts-- nor in my Haynes manual. I can tell you at least, it is certainly not greater than 60 ft-lbs.
I've been told you can support from where the lower control arm bolts on since it does bare the weight of the whole vehicle, but I've always been way to sketched out to try and seen 100s of videos and this is the first I've actually seen it in practice. Not too sure bout that. But he didn't die 🤷🏼♂️
Thumbs down for not teaching me shit about a rear wheel bearing. That's a hub assembly. I get your confusion but I thought you were smart Dan. And get a tourqe wrench. I like your other videos.
I'm glad I can watch the daninator to help me wrench on my own 4th gen bird
Thank you for telling me it was a 3/8 socket nobody else in the video say it I'm using a 14 and 12 trying to figure it out
I was looking to see the wheel bearing replacement. You did the entire wheel hub assembly.

Man, sorry to hear it was so hard to remove. Thanks for the feedback and tips

Thank you so much for this! My wheel bearing is super bad and this video will help a lot in replacing it.
Steve Jobs is alive and he's an auto mechanic!
I broke my spindle in a huge pot hole will be doing this today good video
Emmanuel hernandez Ouch! Happy repairs
Nice video! keep posting stuff on the Camaro!
Thanks! Will do.
Thanks a lot for putting this up! I don't have a bad bearing, but my ABS sensor is bad on one side. This vid will be really helpful! Thanks again!
Sheldon M Did your car say “ABSINOP”? Did this fix the problem.
My brake light is on and the abs inop light is on. Car had been setting for a while. Thinking I need to do this to my 2000 model.
I subscribed once I saw your kid wrenching!
Thanks for this... Just used this video to help me do the same.
Good deal. Glad it helped you out.
Awesome video - thanks :)
like that c clamp ,, makes it alot easier,,, mine is pretty long winded
It's handy for sure
Seeing that clamp alone made this vid worth it. Blew my mind.
Nice video, cant wait to do this over the weekend. Thanks!!! Peace &
Real helpful..thnx

Clean the rotor before re-installing it . Thanks
Every road bump I take, I hear a bump noise as if bumping iron with iron, rear passenger side, firebird v8 1995 could be this?
No way, did you jack the intro music from Phil's channel from back in 08
I love Timken, I used them for both my front wheel bearings in my Subaru
Do you have car supported with a stand under the lower control arm?

@@captainstambaugh , all the research I've found says 63 ft/lbs. If I find something different, I will repost. Sorry for you having snapped the bolt.
Was this front or rear. I’m looking for rear
What size to take the caliper off
Do these have wheel bearings in the rear as well ?
Would you know the measurements of the bolt pattern for the wheel bearing?
If you mean the lug pattern for the wheel mount it is 5X4.75in.
Are the rear ones different??
veterans for equality yes, the rear is a straight axle, so you have to pull the axles out to get to the bearings.
@@TheDaninator thanks for the quick answer!!
Is this the same for rear wheel bearing as well on a 2001?
I wanna kno also?
No it's not the same at all
For all 1993-2002 Camaro/ Firebirds.. means 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, and 2002 models
jack stand at 4:30. Dude thats really unsafe! LOL

How is your name so close to mine?
A RS? What a shame.
Is it the same for the rear?
I need to replace the rear wheel hubs but i only find for sale rear wheel hubs why is that? Are they the same fit rear and back
The rear is a replaceable axle bearing not a hub
Thumbs down for not teaching me shit about a rear wheel bearing. That's a hub assembly. I get your confusion but I thought you were smart Dan. And get a tourqe wrench. I like your other videos.
