Just a heads up for the novices like myself out there. This video shows a 4WD, if your truck is rear wheel, there will be no axle to take off. You will use a 7mm allen wrench instead of the T47 to get the brakes off, and a 36mm socket instead of the 32mm to get your hub nut off. After you take the brake caliper and the rotor off, all you have to do is take off the hub nut, and the bearing slides right off. I was able to get one side done in about 30-45 minutes.

@kendallbrown7370 6 лет назад

Thank you so much. I ordered both front hubs for a 2002 Dakota and they fit perfectly! I did not remove the half shaft, I used a deep 14 mm socket and was able to break loose the 3 hub bolts. It went together great, thanks to your video!

@1AAuto 6 лет назад

+Kendall Brown Thank you for your order. If you would like to leave us a review on Google it would be greatly appreciated. Here is a link to our reviews section. Have a great day! goo.gl/i5JFNY

@kkeyes66 11 лет назад

I ordered the hub assembly for my Dakota, it came with the abs sensor and was very inexpensive. Just installed it using this video, a little different but this video prepared me for what i was in for. I kept the video up on my phone while doing the install. Took me about 1.5 hours to complete and now my truck is riding good. no more squeaky squealing and the ABS/BRAKE lights are no longer lit up on the dash so I'm happy happy happy. Thanks SO Much for helping us DIY'ers!

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

That should be fine as long as there isn't a whole lot of force used on the pry bar. You may also want to check your ball joints to see if they are okay. Hope this helps you out.

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

Sometimes well use the same part of one video to show you how to tackle another project. If your brake pads are fine, you can leave them in place while you tackle the hub. If they're worn, now would be a good time to replace them while the pads are off.

@TheHillbillyRidge 12 лет назад

@1aauto....THANKS for your help....I have 4 wheel disc brakes, just called the local Dodge dealership where the truck was purchased & provided them with the last 8 of the VIN just to confirm......I JUST ORDERED THE HUBS from your website....107.95....WOW.....THANK YOU!!!!! ~ Jimmy

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

These hubs are all brand new and self contained. You do not need to grease them. Basically you just take them out of the box and put them on. We carry some great quality economy hubs and also the Timken ones on our website 1aauto.com 888-844-3393 Hope this helps you out. Have a great day!

@randyusmc 13 лет назад

I just wanted to say thanks this just help me make up my mind on doing the job myself. firestone wanted $822 for a new bearing and upper ball joint and fornt end alignment. doing it my self il save over $600. Thanks again for this, you have no idea how much this helps out for people that havent done this before!!!!

@kstinson 13 лет назад

For anyone that is disassembling a Dakota or Durango but plan to reuse the hub/bearing unit and easy way to remove it is to loosen the hubs bolts about 3/4 of the way out and then use a hammer to smack the bolt heads. It will force the hub out of it's bore without distorting it. Then you can remove the bolts completely and pull it out.

@bebopjunky 13 лет назад

i must say keep it up best videos ive seen on youtube for repairs for dakotas yet im gonna check my problems tomorrow

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

The hub assembly and the bearings are one whole unit.

@rr3n20 7 лет назад

Thanks for shearing this video. That's what my wife's Dodge Durango needs. We been paying to a mechanic to replace the wheel bearing twice for the las 7 Months, the lousy noise is gone for a while and then gets back. this time I will get them from the dealer and do it my self. Thanks You again.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@TheJeremyCupp On this vehicle the hub and the bearing assembly are one unit. They are not servicable, so you wouldn't need a press, they bolt onto the steering knuckle. Hope this helps you out. Have a great day!

@pkupernik 12 лет назад

Well got it done. I did not remove the DS however as I had good clearance to access the hub bolts. took about an hour. thanks for the video :)

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@TheHillbillyRidge If the front makes kind of a roaring noise above 30 MPH It might be the hub. The tolerances on some of these new hubs are so tight, that you can't always see if there's play by moving the tire back and forth. This same thing happened on my 04 Grand Cherokee. Once I actually took the hub off I was able to move it with my hand. Hope this helps you out. We sell hubs on our website 1aauto,com If that ends up being the issue.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@TheHillbillyRidge Thank you for checking us out Jimmy. Have a great weekend!

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@TheHillbillyRidge If you remove the rear wheel off of the vehicle, you should be able to see if it has rear disks or drum brakes. Usually you can even see them through the spokes or holes in the wheel.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

You would have to research a few shops in your area.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

You're welcome. Have a great day.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

Thank you for visiting our auto repair channel on RU-vid.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

It should as long as it has enough torque.

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@6983jt The drivers side should be fairly similar to the passenger side. You may have to remove the axle to be able to access the bolts.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@TheHillbillyRidge It may be the hub, or you may also want to take a look at the suspension pieces to see if anything is broke or worn out.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@ijustgottasaythis It should be the same size as the one shown in our video. Sometimes manufacturers do change the size of the bolt used between model years. We try to provide as much accurate (tool size) information as possible. Thank you for checking out our auto repair videos. Have a great day!

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

It should be pretty much the same, it may even be a little easier because you do not have a front axle to remove. We carry new hubs on our website with FREE SHIPPING for your 2000 2WD Dodge Dakota. 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

The bearing on those are pressed into the rotor itself so normally to save yourself the trouble, you replace the entire rotor, bearing and brake pads at the same time.

@pkupernik 12 лет назад

OK thanks and have a great holiday!

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@pkupernik It does so that you can get at the bolts on the backside of the hub.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

It sounds like it's the low brake pad indicators are squealing, you may want to check the front brake pads. Hope this helps you out.

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@benshivd I did mention feeding the harness but you are right I did not talk about connecting it. So yes make sure you reconnect the ABS harness and route it as it was routed originally.

@x2daz11 12 лет назад

Excellent video! My driver side hub needs to be replaced but i'll probably to the passenger side too, I know where i'll be getting them from!

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@mrspanky61 The video shows you everything involved with replacing the hubs on your Dodge Durango. You should be able to use basic hand tools for most of this job.

@earlanderson5999 6 лет назад

Great video. I am 68 yrs old and was thinking about having a mechanic replace them, but after watching this, I believe I will be able to save money. It may take me longer though.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@Dadtothebone33 GREAT! Sometimes these things can be a bit stubborn. Glad to hear you made out OK. Have a great day.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@nawfyman1 We currently do not have an auto repair video on this particular repair. We do carry the Haynes repair manuals on our website,it should show you how to repair this particular part. Here's a link to them on our website. Hope this helps you out. 1aauto.com/1A/repairmanual/Dodge/Dakota/1AMNL00051/220020/2000

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@cburn665 Thank you for visiting our auto repair channel on RU-vid. We currently do not have a video for that particular repair. However on most vehicles you need to remove the brake calipers, and the center nut off of the axle. You might need to remove the axel, depending on how easily you can get at the bolts on the backside of the hub. We carry replacement hubs for your Dodge Shadow 93. Here's a link to them on our site. 1aauto.com/1A/wheel-bearing-hub-front/Dodge/Shadow/-/-/1993

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@BFMVdrummer It could make a grinding noise. Usually they'll make a howling noise too.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

2wd vehicles do not have a transfer case at all. 2wd vehicles also normally do not have a differential, just sealed wheel bearings.

@terranceturman3491 9 лет назад

Thanks from Kerry. Crenshaw Ms. Mechanics here make seem like Mission Impossible. U made it VERRY simple!!!

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

If there's play in the wheel then they are bad. I usually recommend replacing them in pairs, because if one is bad, the other one usually goes bad not long after the first one.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

We'll keep this request in mind in the event that we need to make this repair in the future.

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

As long as you don't disturb the steering knuckle (which you shouldn't have to) you won't need to align the truck.

@mrsurroundme36 8 лет назад

thanks guys, im no mechanic, so coudnt do it without you

@Twerking4Jesuss 11 лет назад

i love your videos if anything needs replacing i'll get input from my mechanic buddies and even if they've done it a million times or even helping me i'll have your video up and running while replacing the part

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@5150crazyman Thank you for checking us out. We carry a great variety of repair parts for your Dodge Durango on 1aauto.com

@MrShadowpanther3 6 лет назад

Scratching my head on how to torque the axle nut... then "wont torque it till the vehicle is on the ground" - slaps forehead - Thank you!

@dega4amp 12 лет назад

It would just be my luck that my left front wheel bearing would be going bad right before I have to buy books for college oh what fun.....can't wait to replace mine on my 2001 Dakota

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

It depends on the hourly rate. It may take them around 1 1/2 hours/side.

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

It will help keep the axle in place so that you can properly torque the axle nut.

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@randyusmc Thank you for watching. There's a link to that part on our website in the info. section of the video.If you need them for your vehicle.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

Yes, that is all correct.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

You may want to check the radiator fan to see if it's working correctly.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

The vehicle is in fact 4WD because it has front axles.

@rjwatford 7 лет назад

Great video! One question: Why do you remove the axle? Is it just to make it easier to get to the hub bolts?

@FuttBuckerByMutt 4 года назад

It's sooo much easier to reach the hub bolts. In my case I also had to heat the bolts up in order to break them loose and I didn't want to melt any of the rubber that was around the boot of the axle

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

If you go to your local dealer with the VIN number they could tell you. Once you know that we could help you out with the correct part for your truck.

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

If the studs are damaged you may be able to replace the damageed ones.

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@xxdjcharlierockxx On some vehicles you need to take the axel out to access the bolts that hold the hub on.

@bangf1 12 лет назад

Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge with the world.

@b.a.luthor2908 8 лет назад

very helpful! didn't think I could do it but I did

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@MoparMadness93 You have to slide the axle out to get the hub off.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

It's not that bad of a job. We carry both the economy wheel bearings and also the Timken replacement wheel bearings on our website 1aauto.com 888-844-3393 All of our parts include FREE SHIPPING in the lower 48 states.

@stephenkohler3472 4 года назад

Nice vid! Looks like a fairly simple procedure.

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@nachojr1234567890 The plugs should be on the backside of the hub for them to plug into.

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@chefchriskoz These will interchange between the left and right side. They're not side specific.

@luvkountry 11 лет назад

I guess I didn't make myself clear......Installing a new bearing into the old hub..I see the video shows everything one needs to know regarding the removal of the hub & bearing. Do you have an instructional video that shows how to put a new bearing into the original hub...Re-installing the assembly is obviously the reverse of removing it...Thanks....

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

@Dadtothebone33 It should come off just like the video shows. You may want to double check everything to make sure that there isn't anything holding it in place.

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

Axle removal is necessary to gain access to the hub bolts.

@Icriedtoday 13 лет назад

Thank you! You are doing the Lord's work here!

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

If you have your local dealer run the VIN number on the truck for you, they can tell you what it came equipped with. We carry new wheel hub bearing assemblies for all kinds of vehicles on our website 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

@zuni4ful 9 месяцев назад

You are a saint sir

@TheHillbillyRidge 12 лет назад

Ok....THANKS for monitoring your video and replying so promptly to all the questions!! THANKS for your advice and expertise. Could it be the axle? Do I have to remove the axle on the Dakota Quad Cab or does the hub just slide off? THANKS A BUNCH!!!! Jimmy

@1AAuto 12 лет назад

If it requires that the spring needs to be removed, than you might need a spring compressor.

@ijustgottasaythis 12 лет назад

Great video! I have a '98 Dakota up in the air right now and the 32mm socket does not seem to fit. Too small...nut is in good shape, not rounded, so the 32mm socket 9 for my 1998 Dodge Dakota SLT) should fit ...but it doesn't... Is this normal? I'll logic it up to 34mm and let you know if that works, because if its a 34mm socket, 1AAutoparts might want to review the "Tools needed" page. Or I got a real strange front end. Thanks, You guys are very good and I appreciate the video! keep it up.

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

These hub and bearing assemblies aren't serviceable. They come as a complete assembly.

@cburn665 12 лет назад

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

You need to remove it to gain access to the bolts that hold the hub assembly to the knuckle.

@1AAuto 13 лет назад

@bbigdaddy198294 The huming noise could be a bad wheel bearing. If it makes a popping noise while you turn it could be a bad axle shaft of possible a ball joint.

@1AAuto 11 лет назад

Thanks for watching. Have a great day! 1aauto.com 888-844-3393

@princessmom8181 12 лет назад

Great video and thanks! Only question I have is about greasing the new hub assembly (packing the bearings and such). Did you do it off camera or how and when is it done properly if it's done at all? Thanks in advance!

@smushandrocky 11 лет назад

Is it really necessary to remove the axle? Couldn't you access the wheel bearing hub assembly bolts without taking the axle off?

@bigwayne94 12 лет назад

Thanks that helped me out alot guys.

@jamessissem7319 2 года назад

I am sure you know that an extension will change torque values.The extension will twist taking up some of thesetting of the torque wrench.The one you are using looks to be 12 or14 inches,add maybe 5to10 extra on the wrench setting.

@dblock2626 7 лет назад

Proper torque everything.. most shops dont care anymore

@Micscience 12 лет назад

Sorry I botched up my question up a little bit I apologize. I know 2WD vehicles do not have transfer-cases I don't think I said that. I always understood a differential was to accommodate the travel distance when turning a vehicle like how a outside tire travels more than the inside tire. So I guess differentials are only used in the rear where the output of the engine connected threw a drive-shaft is located and vehicles that are front wheel drive have built in differentials in transmission?

@josephegon6058 12 лет назад

On the 2003 durango it has 14mm on the back of the wheel bearing and has a 34mm axle nut.

@Evilslayer73 6 лет назад

on dodge dakota no need to remove the axle if the bolt on the bearing hub came loose freely in some case you have to dismantle completely the assembly to be able to unscrew those f...in 3 back bolt that can be rounded by trying to remove them on my 03 dakota slt i heat them up a lot and cool down with some penetrating oil it help in my case

@cshaf7177 7 лет назад

no need to remove axle. !!!.

@1AAuto 7 лет назад

+c shaf Thank you for checking us out. In some cases you must remove the axle to press out the hub assembly or gain access to the bolts. It is not required in all repairs though. 1aauto.com
