How do change the wheel bearing on 1996 Nissan sentra?

Answer 1

the wheel bearing have to be pressed out and pressed back in... its located in the hub Ideally bearings/races are always pressed on, sometimes not an option in the real world. 1. If the bearing fell apart you will have one race stuck on the axle and the outer race stuck in the spindle. 2. To remove the race off of the axle heat the race with a heatgun or torch, trying not to heat the axle as much, then try and pry it off (chisel-screwdriver/hammer) without damaging the axle surface. 3. On the race that is stuck in the spindle: Pry out the 2 lipseals. On the outside of the spindle next to the race remove the skinny snapring. Heat up the spindle with a heatgun/torch, punch the race out towards the outside with chisel-screwdriver/hammer being careful not to damage the surface of the spindle. 4.Throw parts away, install new ones packed with grease. 5. new ones go in easier if you heat the spindle.
