I can’t imagine this video being extremely entertaining or exciting, but there is a ton of information in this video, so whether you’re looking to simply swap out your front wheel bearing, change out a hub, install new studs, or all of the above, there should be something for you to take from this video.

This job is not going to be a quick one, but it will be well worth it after you’re done! In this video, I go over the entire process on how to replace a front wheel bearings, the front hubs, along with swapping out my factory length wheel studs for extended ones from ARP, on my 9th Gen Honda Civic. This process is basically identical for cars with press-in wheel bearings.

The extended studs are mandatory before the installation of slip on spacers or a DIY big brake kit, as I will be outlining in a future video. I’ve also included some addition information such as the #torquespecsbelow for this car should you be doing the same job.
