Wheel Bearing Victory Posted by RS [Email] (#15) [Profile/Gallery] (more from RS) on Sun, 19 Feb 2017 14:52:01 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
Back in May of last year there was a thread on tools for wheel bearings.
http://www.saabnet.com/tsn/bb/900/index.html?bID=450510.
One of the 900s developed a really bad wheel bearing a couple of months ago.
After watching a bunch of YouTube how to videos, bought one of the 23-piece wheel bearing kits off the 'bay for the bearing but the trick was pushing the hub out ... cheaply.
Got a 2/3-jaw puller loaner from a local car parts place and used that with a 27-mm short socket to press the hub out.
After leaving the hub and bearing in the freezer overnight, pressing the bearing only took a few minutes (with the help of a friendly electric impact driver.
With it all put back together, the car now drives as smoothly as a 900 can.
