To replace wheel bearing on a Peugeot 806, loosen lug nuts and jack the vehicle. Remove lug nuts, the wheel, brake caliper, dust cover, cotter pin, castle nut, and rotor. Unscrew hub nuts of the wheel bearing and replace with new.
Depending on the vehicle, there is usually an inner and an outer wheel bearing and some are as easy as jacking up the problematic wheel, removing the hub cap, remove the grease cap, take out the cotter pin, remove the nut, wiggle the wheel and the outer bearing and seal will pop off. But, in a lot of cases, especially if the bearing has failed, the job will be more complex!
to tighten wheel bearing, tighten until wheel is a little hard to spin,then back off just enuff for wheel to spin freely keeping in mind that castle nut will need to line up with hole in axle for cotter pin
The Honda accord rear will bearing should be torqued at 60 pounds. You can ruin the wheel bearing or the wheel seal if you over torque the wheel bearing nut.

There should not be any slack in the your wheel bearings. The more slack the will bearing has the quicker the will bearing will fail.

You need to remove the caliper. Usually there are 2 bolts/pins that go through the calipers, holding them in place. Once the calipers are off, the rotors should come off quite easily. If it's a front wheel vehicle, the rotor should just pull off. If it's a rear wheel vehicle, the rotor is often integral to the wheel bearing and hub. For a rear wheel caliper, just pull the center wheel bearing cotter pin, nut, remove the wheel bearings and pull the rotor.
my book says 15 lbs then back off just enough to line up cotter pin
yes you can "IF" its two wheel drive first remove brake caliper remove dust cap cotter pin-lock-remove nut outside bearing will come out if you want to remove inside bearing "witch you should" remove rotor wich is already loose pry of rear seal and install inside bearing make sure to pack them with grease but not to much cause it will make a vacume lock and they wont go in install in reverse tighten large nutas hard as you can with a cressent wrench and back it off a 1\4 turn put lock on then cotter pin thon dust cap if dust cap pops out you have to much grease!! its messy but not that hard
