Tech TUElk IV: Replace Jeep Rear Wheel Bearing in the Bush! 

Finally found a video to show how to do this without a press!! Thank you!

Fantastic video. Better than most auto shop videos on changing the rear bearings. Keep up the good work!

Note to bearing re-installers... use the old bearing collar (now split open) as a driver to push the new collar into place, and 2 hammers is better than a hammer and a punch..... 2 hammers, one each side, blamming down on opposite sides of the old bearing collar, driving the new collar home.

Doood! I have always done that exact thing, tires under the vehicle as a backup - we're twinsies!

I got more out of this video than the other 10 I watched! THANK YOU!

I give this video a 7/10. Still left with a few questions

Cheers fella. I'm doing both my rears tomorrow. Will keep yours video ready to hand

The fact that youre doing it in the bush shows that you really know what youre doing. Good job.

Really appreciate the vid, gotta do mine soon.

What a fuckin beauty this guy is.

Great video mate, really handy. Thanks

Nice job....nice to see with basic tools

I wanted to find a way to do this repair without a press. Thank you

I’m about to do the rear passenger bearing. I like the drum brake slide hammer trick. I can hear the movement in the bearing at slower speeds ( getting worst now). I found movement up and down in the bearing with the wheel off. Bearing kit ordered. What brand of bearings you guys used. I ended up with a Repco brand. We see how it lasts. In my previous four wheel drive I used Timken one side and Koyo bearings on the other. Both were fine.

Bravo!

Very helpful, I can attack this no problem now.

5/28/23: 1:50 pm USA. Hi just curious if this would be the same procedure when doing on a 93' Jeep Grand Cherokee but with rear drum brakes, Spicer 35 axle, ABS sensor.

what signs was the bearing giving you to know it needed to be replaced? did you have alot of vibration at higher speed?

Hey mate is the second seal in the kit used for anything??

G’day Jeeper what tyres are you running? Love your channel been a fan for sometimes

How did you realize that you should change the bearing at that right time ? I mean, I am somehow in the bush but I need to run more about 500km with that bearing sound. What bad thing can happen ?

It’s a jeep thing you wouldn’t understand
