No, the hub is the outer housing that the bearing sits in. Usually bearings have to be pressed in and out of the hub.

Are ball bearings and wheelbearing hubs the same?

No, ball bearings are small metal balls placed inside a ring to reduce friction in rotating machinery, while wheel bearing hubs are components that house the bearings and attach the wheel to the vehicle's axle. Wheel bearing hubs contain ball bearings as part of their mechanism.

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.

Is the wheel bearings on Honda rancher the same on front and back?

No, the wheel bearings on a Honda Rancher are typically not the same for the front and back. The front and rear wheel bearings are designed differently to accommodate the specific load and design requirements of each axle. It's essential to check the specifications for your particular model and year to ensure you obtain the correct bearings for replacement.

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.


How to Replace wheel bearings on Pathfinder suitcase?

Not sure about Pathfinder in general, but a lot of suitcases use standard 60-70mm inline skate wheels nowadays, which all have the same, removable ball-bearings (2 per wheel). I recently got a suitcase that was missing one of the ball bearings on one wheel. I replaced it by popping-out one of the bearings from an old pair of inline skates and putting this into the malfunctioning wheel. The bearings in the case had ~5mm standoff hubs, which I approximated by adding a couple of washers to the outside of the wheel. Removing bearings is a little fiddly - I just wedged a small flathead screwdriver against the inside edge of one bearing (i.e. insert screwdriver from the opposite side of the bearing you're removing). Then braced the driver handle against a table and pushed down on the wheel to easily pop-out the bearing. It now works fairly well (Certainly better than when it arrived).
