1. A 3/4" drive extension works perfect for a tool to hammer them together.

2. I knew Nothing about cars.
   After I found EITG I swapped out my Honda Accord LX engine
   This guy is a hero

3. I found this very helpful, thanks Eric.

4. Is there any way to see if the bearing was installed backwards after it's been installed on the car without taking it off? I got all 4 replaced and now I have an abs light. I'd rather not take everything apart if I didn't have to.

5. always been helpful

7. Your a good dude

9. 10 years later still helping people. Thanks

10. Watched you years ago and learned a hell of alot, became a manager at my depot. Teaching others and recommend watching your channel and now I'm watching your channel all over again….. stay dirty, stay safe.

11. What was the torque specs on the bearing

12. Good info – thanks for the help

13. Love how everyone complains about how its expensive to replace the hubs. The bearing and hub kits are less than 50$ and you get all new parts.

14. "just crested 1,000 subscribers…" LOL…now he's sitting at 1.5 million…good on ya Eric!

15. Eric, If you set out to help others and make their lives a little easier believe me, you are a great success. I watch your videos to remind myself just how difficult repairs could be without proper instruction, guidance and knowledge. You truly are a great mechanic and a world of help. Thank You.

16. Hey Eric I have a 2005 Honda Accord EX automatic how do you know when the front wheel bearings are going bad right now I feel a shimmy in the front of my brake pads are good and my brothers are good so I'm assuming it's the the front hub or bearing what do you think

17. You just like to play with all your tools LoL

18. What’s the year of the car you’re working on or this bearing came off of what year of car

19. Hey Erick I have been a long time subscriber though I don't watch your videos much any more. The wire wheel in the press bore will clean the bore but it will damage the surface as well. Anyways love and peace glad to see you still kicking ass even though this video is 10 years old lol

20. That's a t boltused for water line pipe

21. I'm working on my 1997 Acura CL 3.0, it's the only year that car had the encased rotors and it's been damn hard to find info on the car. Thanks for these videos

22. LOVE THIS GUY HES KOOL AS A MUG!!!

23. good job

24. WHAT YEAR ACCORD ARE U WORKING ON IT DOESNT SAY WTF

25. what size are those 12 point bolts

26. I just completed this job and here are a few tips. This process is the same for 94 – 97. If you cannot remove the knuckle from the car, separate the upper ball joint and leave the lower joint attached (mine was stubborn), then the hub/bearing assembly can be knocked out. I built a jig out of 2 pieces of 3/4" plywood with half moon cuts to encompass the bearing supported by 4×4's, leaving the hub free to come out towards the floor…. a very heavy hammer is essential.

    For assembly, put the hub in the freezer and the bearing in the oven, I heated it to 190 which is well within it's working temperature range. Quickly grease the hub and assemble, same hammer hitting a proper sized socket atop the hub. Make sure the INNER race is supported, it went together very easy.

    As a note, it seems the current model Timken bearing (513098) does NOT have the OEM style dust shield on the hub side, it has an internal seal on BOTH sides now. Also, the casting lines on the outer bearing was a little uneven and prevented the rotor from passing through it, I had to grind the curved surfaces a few thousandths to allow it to pass. I've seen a review from another user and they had the same observations.

27. Anyone know what year Honda?

28. Your videos are awesome man, we hope the quality of our repair videos look as good. We have learned a lot from you, especially the parasitic battery drain video. 🤜🏻🤛🏻⚙️

30. Hello. Does anyone know how to pull a CV join on an 1984 Accord. We are trying to pull the CV. Does the hub come off with a puller or do you have to pull the ball joints?

31. Good job bro

32. Literally pulled this video up in while i was in the junkyard. I found an Accord that had a steering knuckle with a brand new lower ball joint already installed. Had to strip it down so I didn't spend too much since all I needed was the knuckle with the joint. taking the hub out worked like a charm on the spot.

33. Thank you.

34. My current situation now 😧🤷🏼‍♂️🔥

35. 6:47 That groove was made by the chisel at 5:38, not from the cutting wheel.

36. Ironically, my brother Erich is not a car guy. Not car fixing anyway.

37. I fucked up. Life sucks. Put bearing in wrong way

38. Bla bla bla

39. What year of accord?

40. I didn't see you put the race back on the hub after you broke it off do you not need to replace it before putting back on the bearing assembly?

41. LOVE your videos!!! You have saved me so many times with fixes on my truck. Thanks for your videos.

42. You got 1.3 Million subscribers now my friend. Keep up the great work.
