I have used the bearing pull tool loads of times in the past. It was surprisingly easy and you can do it with the assembly on the car
Thank you very much for saying this. I was about to disassemble my car and I literally just got an alignment the other day. I can do this without disconnecting the tie rod and ball joint with the puller tool, right?
@@ayliose9188 you will need to undo ball joint and steering tie rod to give you room to get the CV joint out of the way. If u leave the ball joint attached to the bottom arm it wont affect steering alignment. I will add that if the old bearing had a lot of play in it the alignment may alter the alignment.
You can make a spreader tool for the knuckle/strut! Take a 10mm allen socket and grind down opposite sides to fit in the slot, then with a ratchet turn 90° and the strut slides out!
Very good job on the ABS hub bearing removal I definitely like how you mentioned to consider taking it to a machine shop to have them press the bearing out I think that's the route I'm going to go with as I don't have machine press awesome video thanks for the great details.👍🏁🏆
Thanks a lot for the full process 👍🏼👍🏼
Definitely helpful now time to make the attempt 😂 thanks for all the tips and tricks 💪
Very informative video. Sorry to say I can't watch any more of your videos though... your music drives me crazy
Weenie
thank you for making this bud!
Great job you make it look easy I got the A3 I going to save it for the future👍💯.
Guys, don't even take out the bearing with a press, much better like this guy did. I was using a press to take out mine, and i broke the knuckle. Take out the bearing anyways to see how easy it was, and is easy as fuck, it didn't even hesitate to get out.
Of you have a mig welder run a weld all the way around the bearing race, let cool down and it should just fall off. Cheers
Nice camera work, also very matter of fact descriptions of procedures you used.. Very helpful video. Thank you.
Hey thanks 🙏
Great video! I’m just learning this kinda stuff and this explained everything very well
Good tutorial.
Wow! So, why didn't you use the press to push out the assembly? That's what I did, but I'm stuck with removing that bearing race. That's why I am here. So, far, using a Dremel, I've cut notches under the bearing race so I can use a puller with heat! I think that will work best. ......... and, I love my press! I've made all of my press tools, so no beating up good sockets. Thanks for your video.
I needed this video! Really helpful man
it's called a pickle fork it's what Old-Timers used to use to free up the ball joint
Torque procedure... tighten to 147ftlb. Loosen nut half a turn. Rotate wheel 180 degrees. Re torque to 37ftlb +60degrees.
Is this the procedure for all Mk 4s? Doing my late model (early 2005) Jetta.
Great video. Thanks!
excellent. Thank you for the tips.
good job men.// thank you for info!
Thank You. Great video.
It's either a ball joint wedge or a ball joint puller. Sad thing is I've used them for years and I call them tuning forks as well.. lol. BALL JOINT SEPARATOR!!!! 👌
interesting torque procedure you used on that axle nut
The tuning fork is called a pickle fork. And they are absolutely great but you have to be careful with them. Because if you have to reuse your tie rods or ball joints the pickle fork can damage them or damage the rubber on them
What would be the appropriate tool to use and not damage the rods/ball joint rubber? Id like to buy it ahead of time. Thanks
@@jaimelanda1 there are actually tools that you can use to separate the tie rod without damage. Just look them up on UA-cam. But one way that you can do it. Is if you get a hammer and you hit the area of the steering knuckle and it will pop loose. Do not hit the threaded end, and do not hit the ball joint itself. Sometimes just hitting the tie rod right where the steering knuckle is connected to the tie rod will immediately pop it out. But if you are replacing your outer tie rods anyways you can use the pickle fork because it doesn't really matter if you damage it. But if you're not replacing the tie rod then it's not advisable to use the pickle fork
@@youandiryan thanks for the response!!! Will use all this info here soon when i replace wheel bearings on my 2006 mk4 VW GTi 1.8T.
Thank you bro 🙌
Uv got a press u could of pressed bearing out instead of hammer and socket good video nice one
This is a tutorial video. He is showing how to do it without
@@Cxal I'm 98% sure you can't "press" the new bearing in with a hammer. If you need one to press it in just use it to press the old one out.
5:32. I think it's called a pickle fork.
Nice showing a variety of methods to attack the disassembly.
At the 12 minute mark, where you're showing that you had to move from torch to dremel to score the race stuck to the hub's stub, I want to add something I often do:
After you score deeply enough with the cut off wheel in a dremel, I would use a -sharp- chisel and the hammer to pound on the crack. When you got deep enough, the chisel will crack the race, and then you can pry it up much more easily. Only one more tool in the kit used, in addition to the hammer you'd already used to remove the hub and bearing! :)
chrstphrr thanks for pointing that out! I use the chisel method as well 🙌. Looks like I missed mentioning that! Thanks for the comment! It will definitely help the next guy 😁.
excellent video
Very helpful! Great video!
Con una prensa de banco es muy fácil , sino la tienes como se hace???? Eso es lo que queremos ver todo el mundo...
Use the vw spreader tool avoids all the hammering. About 15 dollars on ebay
5:40 that tool is called a pickle fork.
Or a ball joint separator.
Watched this very informative video, attempted the job just to have it all back together and realize just then that the hub was the wrong kind shoot me now.
The tuning fork is called a Ball Joint Seperator or a ball joint fork, ball joint buster, everyone has their own name for it
Pickle fork
Very good
The "tuning fork" is actually called a pickle fork.
Pickle fork is one term. The technical name are ball joint/tie rod spreader
Don't it damage the rubber gater ??
Excellent.
Thanks really helpful
Haver az a raklapos platform nagyon tuti 😁
I have to embark on this, this weekend. I'm nervous
Me too
Me three
Me 4!!
Yeah, that's usually how it ends. Seen it in many repair shops and even licensed dealerships. Happesn to me most of the time as well
I think my Jetta MK4 has the actual like round looking hub assembly
I have a 2007 Jetta 2.5 and I think I need an M11 triple square xzn. The M10 is too small and the M12 seems to big.
Todo mk4 tem caixa de ar amassada kkkk
The rust on mine had to destroy the thing with and air hammer but the cv axle was blown anyhow

Nice.
I would just change the whole housing kit. Much easier.
Sure if you want to pay for all that 🤷♂️.
Is it possible to replace just the hub? Or do you have to do the bearing no matter what?
Yeah you can just change the whole housing kit. It is much more convenient. I dont know if it is more expensive.
Great tutorial. Incidentally, Autozone will loan the cup kit needed to press bearings so that you don't resort to using expensive sockets to hammer them out. Looks like you have aftermarket axles on the car. If you've had them installed for a while and you like them, can you recommend the name brand? I want to do the same work on my '04 GTI VR6 that you did in this video. Also, do you have advice on how to remove and install the rear stub-axle and bearing on the MKIV? The rear bearings and stub axles look a little more challenging to mate together.
Looks like he has Raxles. I’ve only ever heard good thing about them and I think they have a life time warranty.
Awesome video. How long does this job usually take to do?
Depends on skill set. I'd say 1-3 hours
Great vid. How much torque to tighten the axle nut.
Bentley for MKIV 1999-2005
Weight of vehicle must be on its wheels.
Tighten new 12-point nut to 200Nm (148ft-lb) and immediately loosen 1/2turn (180°)
Turn wheel 1/2 turn (180°) (rollvehicle), then tighten to 50Nm (37ft-Ib) plus 1/6 turn (60°).
Alternatively
Weight of vehicle must be on its wheels.
Tighten new 12-point nut to 200Nm (148ft-Ib) and immediately loosen 1/2 turn (180°)
Turn wheel 1/2 turn (180°) (rollvehicle)
then tighten to 50Nm (37ft-Ib)
Make a mark on nut point with line.
Make a second mark on the wheel hub two nut points away from the first. (The distance between each nut point on a 12point nut is 30°)
Tighten the axle nut until both marks line up.
@@swtmnk3 thanks.
Or their is number 4 you can sometimes find a good spindle at the junkyard then you dont have to press anything take anything to have it pressed at a shop and sometimes you can find a new one that someone else has had pressed or pressed themselves!! I hate pressing bearings they never work out for me. And if you do get one at the junkyard make sure their is no play in the hub or u will have to bring it back and find a better one!!!
Great video, my driver side is going bad after it remove the axel to make it easy to install the transmission. What kind of suspension do u have on?
B&G Coils, IDF arms, R32 knuckles
Hi! Control arm were did you buy it or you make it ?
IDF Front Tubular Control Arms
Your Tire Rod end is installed upside, no? suppose to thread from the top and nut the bottom not nut the top?
Yes, you are correct. Upside down and left and right are swapped. This paired with r32 spindles help correct suspension geometry after lowering the car.
Bety good
What is that silver tool u used to press it in?
a large socket
If the old outer race can be knocked out with a hammer, surely the new bearing could be tapped in with a hammer, applying impact force to the outer race? Sadly, I don't have a press machine.
Will damage the new bearing. The old bearing didn't matter if damaged,
@ 4:37 you checked the wheel hub for play before replacing the bearing. @ 15:15, after replacing it, you just spined the hub. Should it also have little play or it just spins ? Mine has some play in it, with the wheel and axel off, but no play once the wheel is installed. Is that normal ?
axle nut needs to be installed to square the bearing up from the outside, so this is normal.
Does the bearing goes in a particular way? Which side goes in or facing outside?
nope both sides are the same
Is it normal for new bearing to have a little shake with hub also some different wear on hub where bearing sits. Reason why I’m replacing is when I turn right my front left wheel shakes/hops
So I just picked up an 03 mk4 20th anniversary edition, and I'm having an issue with my Parking Brake. The metal bracket that holds both of the lines to the adjustment bolt at the handle is missing so naturally the cables will come out or loose.
@@swtmnk3 that's where I got the idea from
Rip that shit out of their parking brakes are overrated and if it’s a stick reverse as your lock out gear
Pickle fork
confused why you battered the bearing out with a hammer when you could have used the press.
To demonstrate to others how you might go about this if you did not have a press 🙂
@@swtmnk3 but you'll need a press to finish the job anyway.
@Grimshaw Grummage Say you are using a threaded bearing press and you don't own a impact. Beating the hub out is easy as hell and depending on what type of puller you buy, rent or make..beating the bearing out is just another way to get the job done. No need to be pressed 😀
Damn I watched it all the way through and didn't get the info I wanted. I might have missed it I skipped around a lot I was looking to see how you torque your axle nut. I'm getting conflicting answers online. Also I think my tie rods are upside down cuz mine come down through the top and yours go up through the bottom
I don’t recall the torque spec but my tie rods are upside down on purpose so your good there.
10:33 emotional
😂
Do you still have your MK4?
Sierra Pepin No I sold it to get a 4runner. I miss the VR6 though!
/BCENZtube I have an ‘01 VR6 and it’s been almost a year of fixing it (this is car #2 so I’ve been doing the repairs at my leisure while learning as I go) and I love it 💕 I’m definitely getting collector plates next year when it’s 20 😎
Torque specs : Guden tight
Google : 148
Can I replace a spindle from a 2000 to a 2000 golf
Oscar Bautista 2000 to 2000?
please lube/grease the bottom of the coilover!
Mmmmm no thanks lol.
🇲🇦🇲🇦👍🇲🇦🇲🇦
it looks like you're playing whack a mole
Stupid music again,
Terrance Price please take a ticket and wait in line for your number to get called
good video. stopped watching due to the shitty annoying music. was that really neccesary?
This is not a wheel bearing replace this is a wheel bearing repair. it does not take a whole day to replace a bearing! You repaired this bearing using new parts you did not replace it.
haha what, definitely a wheel bearing replacement. yeah, it takes an hour maybe. But if it's your first time doing something like this I would alot the time to not have your car for a day...
15:10 You didn't press the hub in all the way lol. You stop when it gets really hard to press nothing less than that. If you have ABS light after that job there's why.
I'm not sure what makes you think that other than the bend abs ring but ok.
