mplavery Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Are there any guides out there showing how to pull the rear hubs and strip it all down to the knuckles? id like to see how this is done, cheers, Kev I have done mine a few times, there easy to do. Cant remember seeing a how to on here but just to let you know make sure you replace the hub as well as the bearing. First time I done mine I just replaced the bearing it still made a noise due to the hub so I had to replace the bearing again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a chance im going take mixing new and used parts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rider Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 You should not need to replace a hub at the same time as a bearing unless you've been driving around on a trashed bearing and its scored the hub. The bigger question with bearing replacement is whether to do it with the ABS sensors in or out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
