In this video I am swapping out the rear wheel bearing on a 2017 Hyundai Santa Fe. It's AWD and an easy bearing to replace. At least for a rust belt car it is.
-Enjoy!

Way easier than front wheel bearings on my daughter's 03 Outback. Didn't involve a hydraulic press or a torch. Thanks to you I got it done though. You showed me the tip of getting the race off of the hub with a torch. Worked like a charm. Thank you Eric O!

I just did the front bearings on the wife’s 2002 Liberty Sport, they were so seized on I had to use the cutting torch to get them off, your right about domestic auto makers they could’ve used some ingenuity back then.

Herro, My name is Ha-yoon Kim. I'm carring from Hyundai North America with some great new about your 2017 Santa Fe. We would like you to know that our engeneers have worked hard to create wheel bearings that meet or exceed our competition with the added benefit of being very easy to replace if that is needed. Those same engineers are responsible for your engine using an excessive amount of oil. The failure rate is near 100%. You can rest easy knowing that we have set aside $2 billion this year to cover the warranty of these engines.

@Phillip Banes I never said otherwise. I only mentioned Hyundai because they were in the news this past week TheDrive. They discussed the 2 billion for bad engines. Our guy was working on a Hyundai in this video and the Engineers did good on the wheel bearings. Not every comment on YT lacks substance.

Another day, another SMA Video. Had a rough night and a bad start to my morning. A hot cup of coffee, a biscuit and an SMA Video brightened the mood immensely. Thanks Eric. Thank you for that video. I know that sometimes the day to day business can seem monotonous and the stuff you do "is just your job". Some days I wish I could help out as a part time job in stuff like that. My job is IT heavy - that means pushing mails and spreadsheets. You don't even see what you have done at the end of the day. Keep up the great work and I appreciate your videos - even if it's the 500th Bearing swap. Always relaxing and always entertaining to see you work.

Hey Eric you got me to finally realize i can change my brakes. I Did the fronts on 16 escape and now on to the rears. Learned some things along the way and plan on correcting a few thing i forgot like filing were the pads slide when i only used a wire welding brush to remove that CT rust. I doused everything in fluid film to slow down the rust. I just need to figure out how to remove the failed 2 piece lug nut. I bought Dorman (only reasonably priced ones at 2.50 for 40) oemfix single piece lug nuts. I don’t think they can mess those up.

That’s a very timely video. I have a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe. And while changing from my summer tires to winter tires yesterday I grabbed the tire at 3 and 9 o’clock and noticed there was quite a bit of wiggle, so I’m thinking the wheel bearing is shot too, but it’s still quiet as a mouse. Maybe I’ll have to take Eric up on his word “If I can do it, you can do it.”

Just did two front wheel bearing hubs on a 2012 Ram up in the Peoples Republic of Ontario for the last 8 hours. They fought me every-single-inch of the way! Chisels, air hammer, sledge and a 1/2 gallon of penetrating oil. Bruised cut and tired but I won. The truck put up a fight but gave in. Now I'm relaxing all proud at my accomplishment watching you knock out a bearing hub in less than 14 minutes. Sighhhh.
