Finally, a video showing both he bearings. Great video.

Great video! I was replacing my rear calipers, rotors, and pads on my 2500HD when I noticed I had gear oil collecting in the caliper on the driver side. After watching this video I was confident I could replace all the bearings and seals as well. Your video was detailed and thorough. I double checked the torque specs to be sure, and you were right on. Thanks for the help! I had zero issues.

thank you for the video .... was a lifesaver ..... i’ve replaced the seal 3x on my 08 3500hd 4wd, and it’s leaked every time .... finally, thanks to your video, i realized there was still part of the old seal (original) stuck in there!!! hopefully my 4th time will be my final one!!!!

Great job. Like that you included torque settings, very helpful.

Thank you so much for this video, just got finished with mine on a 2003 Suburban 2500 and everything I found was for the 1500. This was perfect. And including the torque specs, absolute perfection! Much better explanation and video quality than a lot that are out there, even from some of the well known/commercial video producers.

This is a GREAT VIDEO!! A MUST WATCH IT! He explains everything down torque specs.

Great video, have been using your video all along the way that I've been changing my bearings out today! Going smooth so far thanks to you 🤘

Great job! Thanks for mentioning both bearings. That helped a lot since most videos only show one.

Excellent video. Very methodical and shows every step. My type of video instruction.

Great video man. You helped me thru my repair like you wouldn't believe. And I also happen to think your camera and microphone work just fine :) don't think you need anything fancier since you explain and demonstrate the procedures very well. Thanks a bunch

Thanks so much for posting your video! I will be having to do just this...starting to see some of what you are seeing from your driver's side as well!

excellent video - thank you for the effort to put this together! Very helpful.

Best video I’ve seen on this thanks

This video was well done and was a great help for completing my project. Thank you!

Thanks for the good explanations on seals and setting the bearings. I am 1/2 way thru my '14 Express van 2500HD / Duramax 6.6 and the hubs and axles are identical. I needed some more information that was not in the manual. Like others said, cam and video are fine. Can see and understand everything.

Thanks for posting! Very helpful!

My bearings and seals are in great shape but the previous owner let it sit, the parking brake locked up and damaged the ABS ring on my 2013 duramax (unlike your '07, there's an encoder ring behind each hub instead of just on the drive shaft). Thanks for posting this, now I feel a bit more confident getting at it this week. With all the rust in my area, I'm sure every part of this is going to be worse :D

Im about to do this on my 04 2500hd. Great video, thanks so much 👌

Just wanna let you know that you did a great detail job on this video and it helped a lot

Great Video! Because of your detailed explanation I am going to tackle this myself!

Awesome job, brother... After researching youtube and manuals, I did my inner and outer bearings on both sides of my 2004 silverado 2500hd... There was no information anywhere about the outer bearings and everyone had a different spec for tightening the locknut... Both sides failed pretty quick and I thought I tightened the hub too tight... So, I'm ready to do this again and thankfully found your video... I ended up putting the outer race on first, then the bearing and retainer... Now I know the bearing goes first... I use a block of wood also for the seal... Anyway, I have to thank you for this so my job won't fail this time... There's too much confusion out there regarding these full floating hubs.... You cleared it up... This video should get 100000 views... Peace...

This video saved my ass with all your tips and tricks. Thanks man!

GOOD PICTURES AND VIDEO MATE, NICE JOB...THANK-YOU VERY MUCH !!!

I love the video you walked me right through something I have never done and it turned out good drives more smoother

Good video, if the metal ring sticks to the spindle instead of using a flat head you can use a chisel to lightly score every inch or so all the way around it. The chisel causes the sheet metal to slightly expand so as you work around the ring it will just pop off. Also putting your races in freezer for a bit will shrink them making it very easy to install in hubs. Worked as a semi mechanic for years and a full floater 14bolt is just a baby semi rear end.

Great video. Seems as if this will basically apply to my 2004 Chevy Express 3500, with maybe different torque specs.

Damn, one hell of a good job with limited tools. Wow thanks for sharing your experience. I am probably going to have to do my truck some day. Incredible work. Thank you an God bless. 2 thumbs up from here. 🙂 👍

Got to do everything you did plus have to do backing plates and all new brakes. Got a pile of new parts. My E-brake imploded a few years ago because the backing plates disintegrated

Love it brother thanks for great tips

Out of all the videos for seal replacement out there yours is most descriptive. Thank you for providing torque valves too.

Very good video. Thanks for posting...

Awesome job 😎👍

Thanks, and Awsome Detailed Video, You Gotta Make More!!! :)

Awesome video thanks a bunch for sharing

Great video. Great delivery style. I had to laugh about the comment made when you spent 15min looking for the clip....I HATE when that happens. Haha

Verry helpful video. Hi chek many and this is the best and comprehensive. Thank you very much

Great video, thank you!

Brother, I like you I like you a lot you remind me of me when I was younger and by the way, that was very informative I was lost until I watched your video. Thank you.

Very good video!

Your puch is actually a "Bull Prick," used by Red Iron workers to align primed girders as they are being riveted in place at great heights.

Thank you for sharing, you are good mechanic,God bless you 😊

Thank you so much for this video

Nice job

great video.

Nice job dude! I was going to make a video for this but but during a brake job my leak popped up so no time haha. Thanks for the torque specs too!

good informative video.

Good video. 👍 my rear left seal is leaking. After new seal it's still leaking on the test drive. I did put some gear oil on the seal and where it's sets on the shaft. And no silicone on the 8 bolt lol. Lesson learned. I get to do it again 😄🤣

Double the pleasure double the fun! Isn't 2 seals always better than one? HA! yes getting all of the seal out is a very important step.

Muy buen vídeo gracias por compartir very good video thanks for sharing good bless you

Im curious if you experienced heat on either side after noticing seal failure? You still looking for a jeep cherokee? Couldny tell on your plate but florida? Thanks

you had me watching as I heard you call out tool sizes... I refer to videos to take notes down and set my tools aside. Rather than drag my hole tool box. It would be nice to know exactly what tools are needed when doing a job. Especially since I dont have the specialty tool to remove the center nut. From another video, I gather its a everthough 67037. From you, I know I need a T55 for Caliper slide out pins, 18mm caliper bracket bolts. No work on axel flange bolts... Either way, thanks

Thank you! I'm a serious do it yourselfer - but for reasons unknown to me this really made me nervous. I have the GM manual online and isn't 100% clear what to do. My truck has 290K miles - I bought it used and have no idea the history. Bearings looked great (Made in USA Timken) - but it was starting to leak. I replaced the parking brake shoes and hardware and got a new Napa seal. Saved the $177 on the J tool for the seal and used a block of wood and rubber mallet - went in smooth. Now - how to exactly adjust the parking brake shoes...and to...or not to replace the seal on the other side when it currently isn't leaking???? Truck serves to haul the slide in camper - that's its whole job right now. So...ponder breaking open the other side when it isn't leaking I must. 😀

Thank u Sr very helpful

The 2500 as the same differential like the 3500 you have to change the hubs for the dually ???

Thank you so much. I have a 2007.5 duramax i goint to do the same job.

FYI.... I wish it only took 37 minutes for both sides!!!! Lol. Thanks for the shade tree mechanic video 👍👍🤪

I just want to thank you for this video and your knowledge!! I wish I could do more then just hit a like button and subscribe!! I was scared to do this and was going to send it out and pay 1400!! Yea 1400. But I think that was with new hubs. Anyways I watched this 15 times ans it made this job easy and made me confident being able to do this. Again Thank you and godbless

my beloved '05 LLY is making howling noise i take it in shop they said whole rear end needed replaced for $5700 including new rotors pads etc. Was your truck making a howling noise or just leaking?

96 dually rear hub bearings work the same but that little clip holding the outer bearing is a booger. Also needed a real good clip tool to reach in there

Well done thanks.

Hey great video. I've got to do my 2500HD GMC Sierra. This helps a bunch. Do you have any information on the axle nut removal tool, I'm striking out locally.

The hole in the center of caliper is for pushing piston open a bit more so you can get caliper off easier... just FYI

Nice work, thanks for posting. The caliper bracket mounting bolts use medium thread locker. Be sure clean the old thread locker off before applying new. Stay gold.

Recently replaced the bearings in my hd2500. Your vid was a great reference to keep lookin back at. I like the tire/wheel set up you’ve got on. What are they? Thanks.

Awesome music

Great show my friend Thank you Edit Can those E brakes be worked on without pulling everything off Mine are way over heating and I can smell them burning

Awesome video. 1. Should I let the silicone dry a bit before tightening? 2. hould I used the gaskets I ordered? 3 any particular king of silicone?

GREAT video!! Now I plan on tackling this myself. Question: did the kit you linked hold up well? Thanks

Had to do this three times on 6.6 duramax. I think its still leaking right now. Everything was done this way the third time. First time they didn't want to replace the seal and I was told to install not the correct way. Third time went with new seals but forewent the socket. Third time I did as I was supposed. I did add some oil to the surfaces where the seals sealed. To not tear anything. I guess that's the issue.

Made it looks easy hope it is mine are bad

Out standing ! Subscribe I did! Going to your channel to see what else I can learn.

Question: I will be doing this for the first time to my 03 duramax tomorrow. What’s the reason why you wedged the front tires ?

Very helpful video. Just a quick question would there be any other reason why it would have a leak? Or is this kinda the most common reason? Changed the brakes on my 15 ram 2500 and the e brake was caked in grease

Thanks!

Hello - great video. Can you tell me what type of silicone you used when reinstalling the axle? Was it a silicone sealant/adhesive or a type of gasket maker? Thanks - GEM

Question. Is this one seal on the axle hub that separated into two pieces or is there two separate seals for the hub and the housing?

Anyone know where I can get that socket and what size/type it is?

Im.doing mine tomorrow

Ty

What tool kit did you use that had that special socket? Great instructional video! Ive got a leak seal on my Duramax right now, I'll be gathering parts and tools to get started! Thanks.

Great video. Makes it look a little less intimidating. One suggestion would be to change the brake pads and park brake shoes if they are contaminated with gear oil.

thank you owe you a cold beer!!!

Do you think the leftover seal part (around 00:13:00) is a separate part for the seal to run/scratch on? So that the seal won’t damage the big axle (or whatever it’s called), aka, grind a grove on it. Thanks!

How do I know what size seal I need? I tried to buy one online but there 3 different sizes and didn't know what to buy.

So was the hub real loose at the beginning because the previous person installed it against that old seal that wasn't removed?

I have an 2012 Sierra HD 2500 , is it any different then the 2010 model? Good video man ty for the info

nice

Drive in figure 8 pattern in a parking lot after fluid change/bearing /seal replacement!

So, there are TWO grease seals on each hub?? It looked like you pulled one off, then pulled another one in the same position as the other. Then the left over metal from a seal that should have been removed. I thought there was just one seal per hub.

Hoping hub isn't damaged or that chaft

Well this work for a 2000 Silverado 2500? And is it the same parts?

Great Video, I just had to ask, Why didn't you replace the Axle Shaft Hub Gasket with a new one, instead of using Silicone sealant over top the old one ?. But just out of Curiosity did you get any leaks, or did the Silicone work?.

Best Video ever

If one seal is good, two seals are gooder:)

Can you use a press to put new bearing in hub?

How do i know when the seal is set? Im stuck at that step.

having trouble getting the passenger side axle to go in, been at it for an hour, any tips? driver side is in, great video

11.5 or 10.5 also are parts the same ??

Doing mine now..... who's parking brake assembly is upside down, yours or mine??!?

Did the bearings go out again? might wanna pack those bearings.
