    ix front wheel bearing replacement

    Is it different than the rear wheel bearing replacement...and if it is, is it the same as on a normal e30(I assume not because of 4x4)



    And I just bought bearings and lock nuts is that all I need or do I have to have new hubs

    I am installing all four wheel bearings, all new CV boots and h&r springs


    Never mind I used the search button

    yeah, replacing it is similar to doing the rear. I used rear wheel bearingsup front. seems fine. I also never use those locks but don't let me stop you from it..

    new hubs are $$$ there's no reason to buy them. the RWD guys have hubs from the dollar store so they're basically free with the new bearings. lol :p

      The ix wheel bearings are similar but you can't press the bearing out by putting the new one in behind it. They have to be pressed in and out on one side.

      No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.
