Hi all,

Can anyone advise on whether a rear wheel bearing change requires any special tools, or presents any special difficulties?

I am assuming that you replace the whole hub?

Many thanks.:)

36mm or 32mm depending on year. The newer cars use 32mm.

The brake caliper carrier uses 17mm and of course you need the 13mm for undoing the caliper from the carrier.

Also, I've never seen a way of drifting off the bearing from behind. There is too much stuff in the way.

Just pull it off with a 3 legged puller if you need to. If the inner race gets stuck, get a hacksaw or grinder and cut a diagonal cut in it and pull it off.
