    Not all bearing with abs have one metal side. There are ones with plastic on both sides. A small piece of metal will tell you which is the magnetic side and that will be where the abs sensor rides across

      Yes,
      they sell a sort of card with iron powder in a transparent sheet wich reveal the magnetic track on the bearing's side.

    Thanks for sharing this! At 4:23 you are tackling a common problem - the inner race almost always doesn't come off. You are using a cutting wheel on your angle grinder in order to vertically split the inner race, whereby it is hard to not cut into the hub (which you did, as is visible at 9:34). Here, I have used a different technique for some 40 years, which is safer: I use a grinding wheel on my angle grinder, tangetially grinding down the inner race (parallel to the hub's axis). It will show a crack, once it is ground down to about half a milllimeter, it comes off easily and the hub is unharmed, almost no hammering needed. I hope that makes sense.

      Yes it makes sense,and thank you for the advice,i will try that
      We didn't damage this hub,the person before us did lol
      The bearings were replaced already on this car.
      however i damaged one once.

    What size press did you use? 10T, 12T?

    • @michaelovitch
      @michaelovitch  8 місяців тому

      It's a 20T but i never used it full pressure on a bearing.
      I bought this one because it's tall and you can slide the shaft on both sides in case you have a weird hub shape to press a bearing in.

    Très bonne vidéo. Jusqu'à combien de tonnes va votre presse hydraulique ?

    • @michaelovitch
      @michaelovitch  5 років тому +1

      Merci,
      20 tonnes,mais ce n'est pas une absolue nécessité ,10 tonnes suffisent largement la plupart du temps.
      La place disponible pour poser les pièces à presser est souvent plus importante que la force qu'elle développe.

      You can buy them online for relatively cheap.
