Glanza_v9797 Posted January 27, 2018 Author Share Posted January 27, 2018 no its the front mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
patman Posted January 27, 2018 Share Posted January 27, 2018 I ordered some once mate and they lasted not even a year think that was from japserviceparts, who’s doing them for you, are they being pressed in properly and greased right, also when doing up the driveshaft nut is that at the right torque?

Calum122 Posted January 28, 2018 Share Posted January 28, 2018 When I did my front wheel bearings, I noticed the hub was completely mangled. The chap who was going to press it in claimed he didn't damage whilst angle grinding off the old one. But told me we could fit a new bearing in. At which point I had to stop and say to him, it's failed for a reason, this looks like the reason. So, if the hub is damaged, and you aren't aware, then that could be why. I only needed the press, but the rest of the work I do myself, so I was able to make that decision. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

5e colin Posted February 3, 2018 Share Posted February 3, 2018 just make sure you pack them fukll of grease with a grease packer just rubbing them in by hand is not really sufficiant Quote Link to post Share on other sites
