Should i and at how many miles should i repack the bearings of my 2001 Dodge Dakota quad cab 4x4?
The wheel bearings are sealed and should last a long time. If you think they are bad you would have to replace the bearings they cannot be repacked.
How do you check condition and serviceability of wheel bearings?
You must go to the mechanic , as the vehicle must be on the lift. Otherwise, you can jack your vehicle up, dismantle each wheel , and grease and repack the bearings one at a time. That is not an option for most people, and done improperly may cause damage to the vehicle.
Should front wheel bearings be replaced in pairs?
Always replace inner and outer wheel bearings on the same wheel at the same. You don't necessarily have to replace the bearings in both wheels at the same time, though it's not a bad idea, but always inner and outer on the same wheel at the same time.
How do you replace the front wheel bearings on a 1995 Toyota Tacoma SR5 extended cab 4x4 v6 automatic?
WRONG......Front wheel bearing replacement or repack is a pain in the butt. Best left for a trained technician. The last time I took mine for a brake test, the mechanic told me Toyota does not make them with wheel bearings Of course the truck has wheel bearings. Pull off the brake calipers and rotors and the spindle nut and the hub should slide out of the backing plate the bearing should come out of the hub. Your bearings should come in a set with a race; the race will have to be pressed out of the hub and the new race pressed in. Put it all back how it came apart.
Do wheel bearings cause shaking?
Wheel bearings that are failing will usually start warning you with grinding. By the time they have failed completely, your wheel will certainly begin shaking--right before your wheel falls off.

Almost. I've seen a horribly cheap toy skateboard once that didn't have bearings, only a plastic center to the wheel. But apart from that, any time you buy a complete skateboard it'll come with bearings.
How do you change the front wheel bearings on a 1996 Honda Magna 750?

How do you replace rear wheel bearing on a 2002 Lincoln ls?
I will offer some info. Maybe not 100% accurate. I have had rear wheel bearings replaced on other vehicles. My wife drives a Lincoln LS now. She needs some work done on the rear end along the lines of wheel bearings. When I had my wheel bearings replaced. They had to pul the housing off the rear end. They had to pull the rear axles and drain all the fluids. There were shavings in the fluids. The first time. The dealer did all that and replaced my wheel bearings. New fluid in. One year later. The rear end was going out again. I took it to my mecanic. He told me the dealer should have pulled the axles and replced the bearings as there was still shavings in those bearings. So, he replaced the bearings and I never ever had bearing problems again. If they do not replace the bearings. You wil still have shavings in the axles bearings. I should have known the dealer would not do it right. You would think they would. But no. They did not. That is my story and I am sticking with it. Bill in Edmond Oklahoma
Should you replace the bearings when you replace the CV joint on a 1994 Honda Accord?
If you mean the spider bearings inside the CV joints, those actually come with the new joint (or CV axle assembly). Usually it's easier and more economical to buy an entire CV axle assembly (comes with the shaft and inner and outer joints). If you were referring to the wheel bearings, it's not absolutely necessary to change those unless they are worn. Interestingly, the front wheel bearings on the 1994-1997 Honda Accords is not a very commonly replaced item; not because they never wear out, but rather because the wheel HUBS typically require replacement rather than the bearings. In many cases, the splines of the wheel hub tend to be the problem when they become seized to the splines of the CV joint. If you find you do need a hub, then it is advised to replace the wheel bearings at the same time. The wheel bearing and hub are sold separately... OEM wheel hub is around $160, and the wheel bearing about $70.
