Civic front wheel bearings
 

I need to replace the front wheel bearings on my civic, i no they are pressed in, so should u buy the wheel bearings for 40 bucks for each one and press them out at my shop witht he press, or should i just say its not worth the time and pain in the ass effort and go with some hugs that already have bearings installed, i also gotta do a rack and pinion, anyone know where you can get a good price on a non power steering rack and pinon, are parts house wants 220 and thats are cost on it

buy two new bearings, pull your knuckles take them to a shop and have them pressed in.

Prssed in wil be the cheapest route and replacing streering racks sucks ------ balls

Re: Civic front wheel bearings
 

u dont even have to press them in
just use a hub puller if your ghetto
You gotta use the one thats like a weight on a shaft.

well we have a press at my shop, so ill just pull the knuckles at home, and then press them in there, i might not have to replace my rack, i think the play is all in the inner sockets, that whould be so much cheaper

Press your old bearings out. ITs really not that bad. Dont forget to get an aligment afterwards though. I just replaced my hub bearings like 5 months ago.
