Hub removal on AW11 Tue, 27 September 2005 04:44 Go to next message

Hi,
Ever since I've had my car, I have what appears to be a slightly buckled hub. My LH rear brake disc makes awful noises when braking.

So I got new discs, which didn't fix the problem for long.

I took the wheel and disc off and ran the car on stands.
The hub has a very slight swashing motion. If the car had been spun into a curb would it be more likely cause a damaged hub or hurt the axle or both?

If I take the hub off, firstly will it come off with 'simple' tools in my garage? Do I need a new wheel bearing if I do this?

Regards, Nick.

you'll need to press the hub out from the stub axle. and if it comes out without some provocation ie: press then its altogeher rooted.

whilst you have it apart get new wheel bearings they are relativly cheap for the job they do.

and then youll need to press it all back together..

oh and fyi ae92 front hubs are identical to aw11 rear items.. same part number and all.

Excellent,
Thanks for the tip, one of my colleagues at work has some AE92 hubs...Wink Is the stub axle the same too? (might be able to lay my hand on a whole AE92 assembly).


Cheers, Nick.
