Step By Step Walkthough on how to change wheel hubs>?

[BeastBoy]

Well i just recently bought a s13 and the studs on the hubs were bad i just went ahead and bought newer hubs since the previous owner fucked up the wheel hubs...now my only question is...HOW THE HELL DO I CHANGE OUT THE WHEEL HUBS?!?! im use to hondas...sorry:loco: i was just wondering if anyone has a step by step walkthrough on how to change them? its both front and rear

[projectRDM]

1) Remove old hub.

2) Install new hub.

If you're confused past that, sell the car and buy a Schwinn. There is no easier thing to do on a 240.

You may also want to get off your lazy ass and search, since you're asking a question that's been covered since before the internet even existed.

Well before this turns into a flame fest i'll say its really easy to do. Get an FSM and read it. If you still need help you can try my how thread on my site from when i did my 5 lug conversion.

DUDE search

well cus if u did research then he wouldnt give u an attitude.

it is somewhat easy if u have the right tools...

which hubs are u trying to replace?

its also the best time to just switch to 5lug if u ever got future plans...
just an advice...

try to do some research and if u cant come up with anything come back and see if someone is willing to explain to u step by step.

just by looking at the wheel hubs its pretty much common sense if ur mechanically inclined...

goodluck!

already did my research on the 5 lug hubs...and i like the 4 lug better. Mostly because right now i dont have the money to do the 5 lug conversion since i have to buy new rotors and wheels and what not...and also because since this is my first nissan i wanna see if i like it or not and if not then i'll just sell the car. As for being in the red...dont really bother me...haha these are just forums...not like it effects me in anyway...

Well my 5 lug conversion thread that i posted above shows how to change the hubs, whether you have 4 or 5 lug makes no difference. Changing the hubs is the same. The only thing i dont show is how to press off/on old/new bearings because my 5 lug conversion came with new bearings already pressed on. However changing the bearings is easy to do if you have a press. If you dont have a press then it's still easy to do by taking hubs/bearings to a shop that has one. Like I said above the FSM is your friend... read it!

Crap dude! You did really good!
Bushing on a S chassis aren't that hard. If you want you don't have to do it all at once. Just the front then the rear.
Double-wishbone suspension are a bitch! For bushing.

Hey I would almost pay you do my bushing for my S14 nikeboy. =P

so what i was missing was the 30mm socket to take off the bearing. i had the dust cap off but no 30mm socket. i had the caliper off already but i just wanted to make sure i was doing everything right. Now that i got the caliper off...another problem came...the break pads literally fell of the actual shoe? and yea...so new brakes it is for me :D
