If it's tight start the car and pop into drive/ease the clutch out. The shaft will pop and your good to go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Borrowed a drill and stole a bolt of the motorbike and came up with this temporary solution. Managed to make the 200 Kay trip home. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gaz097 Bronze Donating Members 1,752 Member For: 13y 5m 18d Posted 07/10/14 12:13 PM Share Posted 07/10/14 12:13 PM Yeah have heard that. Didn't fancy my chances though. Has anyone done a rear wheel bearing on a sedan? Is it best to buy just the bearing or buy a new inner hub as well. EBay sell a bearing on its own or a bearing and hub.
