Most DIY sites list pretty generic instructions that don't seem to cover everything. I am struggling with even getting the brakes off!!! Please HELP!!!How do I change the front wheel bearings on a 1993 Volkswagen Fox?
Take it to a garage. They are pressed in and if you don't have the tools to get them out and press the new ones in,it's hard to do.How do I change the front wheel bearings on a 1993 Volkswagen Fox?
REMOVE THE CALIPER BOLTS ON THE SIDE OF THE CALIPER THEN REMOVE THE BOLTS THAT HOLD THE PADS TO THE ROTOR SHOULD BE A 17 OR 19 MILLIMETER THEN REMOVE THE ROTOR AND TAKE THE NUT LOOSE FROM THE CV AXLE THERE SHOULD BE 4 BOLTS IN THE BACK OF THE HUB BEARING HOLDING IT TO THE SPINDLE TO REPLACE JUST REVERSE THESE STEPS
you will be more stuck when you get hubs off, the bearings have to be pressed in. if you use the big socket hammer technique, it will crack the bearings because the outer flange is thin.
Providing you have a press, take the two bolts out that hold the strut to the spindle, take the outer tie rod out of the knuckle, remove the nut that holds the outer cv joint to the spindle,remove lower ball joint from spindle, remove spindle from car, put in a vise and take out c-clip and seal, press hub off bearing, press bearing out of steering knuckle, and reverse procedure to install.
