Rear Wheel Bearing removal?
Friday, June 29, 2007 11:23 PM
I just have been searching it almost looks like with the wheel off and e brake off the hub pops out?

i noticed the 4 bolts on the back of the drum i was assuming those had to come lose?

needless to say im a little confused as to if those need to come out n then i beat the hell out of it, or just remove the wheel and pry on it? without undoing the 4 bolts

Yes you remove your bolts behind the backing plate. You dont need to remove the brake hardware/shoes/springs or anything, if your just replacing the wheel bearing.

I urge caution though, how old is your car, what state do you live in? I have to use the torch on lots more rear wheel bearings, than front ones.
