Very very good job my friend, watching while waiting for tow truck to see everything I'd need. Excellent documentary video. Thanks, Brint Clark

Fantastic video my friend. One comment I would make is: for me anytime I have grease-soaked brake shoes or brake pads, I would go ahead and change them out. In this case the shoes just go to the E-brake but for me I would still change them. Bravo Zulu on a job well done. 😊

Best informative rear-bearing videos! Great job

Nicely done video, I'm going through my 2006 F350 rear brakes and it was nice to see how the seal is installed. I would recomend that you replace any brake shoes that are soaked in oil ,no amount of brake cleaner will save them. Any amount of heat and more oil will come to the surface and render them useless. Been there done that!!

Good video bro. I use the oven to heat up the hub, along with freezing the race. That heats up more thoroughly. Also, I use the old seal to pound in the new one. Hoo-ah!

Thanks for the video, helped me get mine all torqued up and done.

Best and most informative youtube video, I have ever seen. You are better then a Haynes manual. Thank you very much. Most videos they assume you know what they are talking about. You broke it down to make it understandable to everybody. Thank you for your time.

Good job Devil

Nice video mate...loved how well and thoroughly you broke everything down...even tho at some parts you could have been a lot more agresive on loosing off things it is a steering axle not so easily damaged by human hand tools lol. Great video overall.

awesome video! thanks! (liked and subscribed)

FYI if you check in the machinest handbook of some other trusted book you would find out that adding lubicant to threads alters applied torque to the fastener by changing the coefficient of friction. look up ARP instruction and you will see that the type of lubricant will change how much you torque it. The silver antiseeze increases the torque applied by about 40%. be careful doing this. you may stretch the fastener past yield into the plastic range and the lugnuts can back off! I learned this the hard way as a teen with my 1964 Comet. Walmart started using this due to the rusty studs in the rust belt. I would only add a tiny bit only if the stud is rusted.

That spacer that you put in between the bearing and oil seal what’s that part number I pulled my hub apart and I didn’t even have one which is weird cause I was just replacing the the backing plate and my hub was perfectly fine now I can get it back on

You don't grease-pack oil-bath wheel bearings. Soak in gear oil and install. They're lubed with gear oil from the differential housing.

Question for you. If the bearings in the hub are oil fead with the slinger, is it required to pack the bearings prior to reassembly?

I am swapping some ford super duty axles in my Jeep and this helped me out a bunch. Do you have links to the service manual you referenced?

Great video

The bolts that hold the axle in are torque to yield hence the 37 lbft + 90 degrees. Those bolts stretch by design and will loose clamping force if reused.

thanks for the help

I changed out the backing plate on my 2011 F-350 SRW yesterday and decided to add some additional information (alternative part numbers) Brake shoe spring kit (Autozone) P/N: Duralast H7976 $33.99; Rear grease seal (Inboard near the brake shoes) P/N: NAPA 27SS3319 $53.87; Inner wheel bearing cup P/N: NAPA 27501071 $21.29; Inner wheel bearing cone P/N: NAPA 27401101 $36.98; Outer wheel bearing cup P/N: NAPA 27501052 $12.77; Outer wheel bearing cone P/N NAPA 27401080 $18.88. Blue thread locker (Autozone) Permatex 0.2 oz. $7.49. I used a brass drift to knock out the inner bearing removing the seal and didn't have any damage to the bearings or hub so I probably spent $78 on cone bearings and cups that didn't need replacing. Thanks again for the video.

You might want to add some comments to this video. The idea that they don't replace the axle bolts because of the torque seal is ridiculous and dangerous. Anytime you have a torque like that especially with a degree rotation you're talking about a bolt that stretches. You should never reuse a stretch bolt. When they overstretch they lose torque. Also as others have mentioned for God's sake change and flush the differential oil. You've got metal shavings in it. I appreciate the time you spent doing it but hopefully you learned some technique from others and you might be able to save some from catastrophic problems if you add some comments or edit it.

Thanks Colt! Lots of great info in your video that I just wasn't finding in all the other similar videos out there. Specifically, the availability of tools to push out the oil seal. I was going to try to pick/pry it out and likely would have damaged the wheel speed indicator ring in doing so. Would have been a $300+ mistake! Just wondering where you found the Ford service manual data you had printed out... is there a free or low-cost resource for this info somewhere? Count me as a new subscriber. (2012 F350 Super Duty Lariat 7.6L)

Did you hear any noise from the rear spinning the wheels by hand while on jack stands? I am trying to figure out some things on my truck that I am unsure of. Thanks!

Awesome video! Where did you find the service manual?

what is the number of the service bulletin you printed off?

Well done. Thanks for the video. Its quite helpful.

Great video man, appreciate the details and specifics. Where did you get the info from for the service manual papers referenced? And Thank you for your service!

If you had metal shavings from bearing, then should have change differential oil.

Are you supposed to pack the bearings?

I like the video and find it useful. I was hoping to find a list of the torques when I clicked on "Show more". I did write them down as I was watching the video but, I wanted to make sure I have them right. Judging by your clothes; it looks like this may have taken you a few days to do?

Just went and picked up a boat 3 states away from me....it looks like its been sprayed with oil all down one side from my axle seal going out...lol

I was wondering what the heck was that sound like an air leak making kissing sounds through out most of the video.

I would recommend using a brass punch

Every vid I’ve watched nobody has had the drain pan under it to start with 😂😂 y’all don’t feel bad I make horrible mess all time thought I was smart one time with my 5.4 triton in my tiny shop had funnel hot oil drain pan plug dropped into funnel biggest mess I ever made since I’ve had my own place
