- Banned For Being A Troll
I noticed that my rear tire was "Wobbly"
Makes sense, the Chassis has over 160,000 Km on it and the car is a 2002.
The rear Bearing only comes in the Hub, No Choice.
It is not a press fit, anybody can do this job in under one hour.
There are Two Parts.
Hub with ABS Ring
$250.00 Cdn
Hub without ABS
$190.00 Cdn
I no longer have ABS so I took the Lighter/Cheaper Hub for both rears.

-36mm Socket
-Breaker Bar
-14mm Wrench
-Mini Sledge
-Rubber Hammer
-Chisel (Sharp and Low Quality, Used to Pry open Cap)
-Flat Screwdriver
-WD-40
