Anyone know where i can order wheel bearings for an 04 tsx that wont cost me my shirt. Mostly i've seen are like 125$ for the rears and 30$ or so for the fronts (each). Does anyone or has anyone got them cheaper? thx


p.s. someone told me if i change one i might as well and change them all, i dont really see why but i believe i just have to change one, since it makes noises on that particular side.

Gladly appricate everyones help

 

You can try searching online, for sure there are many online auto parts dealers out there, I've recently tried partstrain and many other sites.

 

You know this isn't a simple pop-out and pop-in like this was 15 years ago, right?

Wheel Bearing Replacement

1. Separate the hub from the knuckle using the special tool and a hydraulic press. Hold the knuckle with the attachment of the hydrulic press or equivalent tool. Be careful not to deform the splash guard. Hold onto the hub to keep it from falling when pressed clear.

2. Press the wheel bearing inner race off of the hub using the special tool, a commercially available bearing separator, and a press.

3. Remove the snap ring and the splash guard from the knuckle.

4. Check the front knuckle ring for damage or deformation, and replace it if necessary.

5. Press the wheel bearing out of the knuckle using the special tools and a press.

6. Wash the knuckle and hub throughly in high flash point solvent before reassembly.

7. Press a new wheel bearing into the knuckle using the old bearing, a steel plate, the special tools, and a press.

NOTE: Install the wheel bearing with the wheel sensor magnetic encoder (brown color), toward the inside of the knuckle. Remove any oil, grease, dust, and other foreign material from the encoder surface. Keep any magnetic tools away from the encoder surface. Be carefiul not to damage the encoder surface when you insert the wheel bearing.

8. Install the new front knuckle ring on the inside of the knuckle by aligning the cutout portion on the ring with the wheel sensor hole in the knuckle. Be careful not to damage or deform the ring when installing it.

9. Install the snap ring securely in the knuckle.

10 Install the splash guard, and tighten the screws the the specified torque value.

11. Press a wheel bearing onto the hub using the special tools and a press.

I know its not like how it was back in the day but i'll be fine, i have my own fleet of mechanics to help me out and a self use garage with every tool i need but thanks for the info. siigh guess i'll have to get it at a disgusting price of over 100$

 

bump.

Anyone know the cheapest place to get replacement rear wheel bearings? Also can anyone tell me if Timken brand bearings are any good.

Thanks.

 

Timkin is generally regarded as the industry standard, so yes, they would be good.
