How to Replace a Front or Rear Wheel Bearing (Full ASMR)
Bad wheel bearing? Wheel bearing noise? Learn how to replace a wheel bearing in your car or truck. In this video I show you how to replace a front or rear wheel bearing hub assembly. With this wheel bearing replacement you need to remove the axle nut, the brake caliper and rotor, and unbolt the bad wheel hub bearing assembly. It is that simple! I show you how to replace the wheel bearing at home using common hand tools, and this time the video is an ASMR (autonomous sensory meridian response) video with high quality audio!

Thank you, good sir!
You are so considerate.
noice
I had to look up wether or not a "wheel bearing" was a real car part lol
i like ypur videos man
That soapy wooder hits different
Lmfao
So does him not speaking
i was waiting for this
Same👌
Basically all the lubricant sounds interesting now
my girlfriend gave me a funny look when I suddenly whispered: "out with the old and in with the new". Now she thinks I'm possessed.
😂😂😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
In name of Jesus stfu
Must think you have a new girl in town.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😂🤣
The fact that you don't use air or cordless impact tools (to make life easier), but just hand tools and breaker bars got my utmost respect.
Thank you! Makes everything take forever but shows millions of people it can get done with common hand tools so to me that’s more important
@@chrisfix any updates on the Del Sol or the supercharged Driftstang? Also, this kind of stuff really helps when you are working on a project
@@1mawesomel1kethat I believe Del Sol content is coming after the BMW LeMons trip, and he has to figure out how to fit a supercharger under the hood of the Driftstang, he said he wants it to look "stock". Hope this helps
@@camf03 thank you
@@chrisfix I love your videos
I can literally hear your words in my ear after each step: "out with the old one and in with the new!....perfect!" I just love it 😍🤣
Your neighbors were probably like “honey get over here, that kid across the street FINALLY stopped talking to himself!!” 😂😂
Lmaooo
Hahaha
*stopped talking to his car
Kid?
LMAO 🤣🤣🤣🤣
*ChrisFix’s neighbors:* Honey, the guy who is usually yelling at his cars is completely silent today. I hope he’s alright!
LMAO
I was thinking the same thing 🤣🤣🤣
W comment
Exactly the opposite now huh🤣
Lol 😂😂😂
I would be open to him posting two versions of all videos from now on, one where he's his normal high energy self, and other of this. This just feels good to listen to late at night.
too much work for the same result, either one, bud. One or the other
For some odd reason i loved watching this with sounds being so clear, was actually peaceful 😂
That's why he tagged the video as "Full ASMR"... It's a new trend where you can actually hear only sounds from materials and tools, without any voice / music over it. And guess what? The purpose of these videos is to relax. Gotta admit I was shocked at the start when he didn't open like usual, but it was definitely peaceful to watch. :)
Never thought a ratchet is so yes
@@ShinLeeChan not really a new trend tho...
This is the most cursed April fools I’ve ever seen. The effort involved! Kudos!
Haha thanks!
@@chrisfix please tell me u have a this vid in not asmr form
I NEED THE COMMENTARY LOL
@@pakodaaaaaaaa4703 I would assume that he could upload it, but.. the asrm version can do lmao
That's cap
Once you've watched enough chrisfix, you can just hear his voice in your head explaining every step
Even the "good!" At the end of each step
"AND LOOK AT THAT!"
Ikr
M E D I U M S T R E N G T H T H R E A D L O C K E R
“Alright! Now THAT is what I’m talking about!”
Ok, so... not "simple", but far more simple than I was expecting this to be. Thank you so much for the tutorial!
Anytime!
Simple with the right tools.
For Chris its simple indeed xD. For the rest of us... its not ALWAYS THAT simple xD.
Why is this so calming? The wrenches, the ticking, the clanking of metals, and the swish swish of the soapy wooder..
ASMR videos are like that and that's the purpose. :) This show how Chris is working hard to make his content up to the new trends. Since his videos are so good, I could easily understand all the process without any of his comments about what he was going to do.
One of the greatest things about ChrisFix is that despite the fun gag that goes into April fools, he STILL manages to make them useful and helpful.
Indian boy are you really Indian?
Yup the piston spring episode was the most useful one so far
I think the blinker fluid one was more useful than this 🤔
Nah, Muffler Bearings...
Yea the blinker fluid that I replaced a few years ago is still in today w no leaks thx to ChrisFix!
I swear if anyone other than Chrisfix owned this truck up North it would just be a mound of rust by now. I love how you wire brush everything down to the bolts!
He lives in jersey
I’m pretty sure he knows. I bet he’s implying that he takes such meticulous care of the truck that it isn’t super rusted
Thanks dude!
@@chrisfished LMAO
hey man hows the ferrari?
I know this was an April Fool's joke, but for the past year and a half I've been coming back to this video whenever I want to relax, super therapeutic stuff!
bro idk why but i can understand this without even hearing chris's voice
Its because you have 6 cores and 12 threads
same
Because we watch our car master as our daily routine ❤️
*The steering turns* Me: "You wanna work with the car, not against it" Girlfriend: "why are you whispering?" Me: "Shhhh"
Hahaha yessss
@@chrisfix OMG HE REPLIED! I mean, my girlfriend thinks I'm possessed now but I got a heart & a reply 🤩
Hahahaha nice joke
Oof 2 hearts lmao
@@chrisfix Yh Chris want one billion dollar no joke I rich no scam
Him whispering in the beginning was still more enthusiastic than the 2015 ChrisFix intro.
Lol i totally agree, the time he started being enthusiastic was when he got the driftstung
Lmao 😂
Whispering turned me on a bit for 2 seconds
@@kostasygaming7409 no he started being interested when he was getting paid lol
Fax I member his lawn motorsea foam test
Now I know why I'm paying $1,174 to have both of my rear wheel bearings replaced today. It's a lot of work. Much respect to these skilled mechanics!
And this is not even a press in type bearing.
@@mercer982 mine is and don't have the tools for it 💀
@@mercer982 exactly. He doesn't even know what were talking about but those press in bearings are easily 5 times a harder job than these where they really are skipping that hard part of actually removing the bearing and putting in a new one
$1100??? Parts and labor?
It should be most most $600.00 its alot of work for usf because we not use to it.
The dedication to not just ugga-dugga half these bolts out for the quality of the channel is insane. My progression is usually a breaker bar, to a high-torque impact, to a blowtorch. Can't be tight if it's liquid.
Not a single word spoken, and still more comprehensible than 70% of diy guides on youtube
Excellent camera work, lighting and pacing. Doesn't happen by accident.
No, Chris was still talking, did you have volume up??
Straight facts
@@GardenGuy1943 he barely spoke during most of the disassembly
@@Fidget_exe volume must not be high enough
I don't even feel pranked. It's really cool hearing the sounds you normally block out; almost like being behind-the-scenes of a real video.
Right!
It brings a tear to my eye to see two of my favorite KZhead worlds come together. I'm a technician at a dealership and I don't think I would've had the love for cars or tools without you, so thank you for that. It also makes me elated to see the positivity and love for you in the comments.
Imagine how good this guy is at finding camera angles inside of consumer vehicles.
The only mechanic in the world who could work on a vehicle and not say a single word or swear. Legend
Most importantly: not even a single swear
I filled all of the words in my head :D
AGREE!!!
Amen. Mostly the swearing part!!!
"Marge the neighbour kid is being even weirder today, he's fixing his car in total silence"
"I think he's sad today, he's not as loud and excited"
@@volvo09 😂😂😂listening to the kid laroi😂
I can tell you he was swearing a lot during that process.. 😂😂😂 we usually don't see that in the videos I guess ♥️
I WANT MORE OF THIS! It's so good to listen to as you work. More please!!
Thank you Chris I did my brother's bearing yesterday on his seat Leon and watching a couple of your videos on bearings I managed to complete it myself. I've done a few things on my own car by watching you at work I just wanted to show my appreciation and say thank you for showing us how to go about stuff. I like telling people when things go wrong it's okay I'll fix it and for the most part it's your videos that make it possible, I even followed you to the point of cleaning the brake dust guard etc
A real video from ChrisFix on April's Fools day? That's not right! 😂😂
Ik it not right
Ikr?
It's full same tho
I came to the comments section before I even watch the video.
Lol Yeah
Was starting to get worried Chris. I knew you wouldn’t dissapoint us!
Anything for you guys!
@@chrisfix lol
@@chrisfix love you
@@chrisfix thank you 🙏
@@chrisfix lol, so how many takes did it take to avoid your neighbor(s) running something kind of outdoor power equipment?
Hey Chris you made me buy whole tools to repair my car by my own. Its one time spend and its also worth it. that would be great to do more ASMR car repairs. that feels great when I'm doing it on my backyard in complete silence. Thanks for whatever you did in past years and helping community to be more knowledge about car problems and how easy it is to fix cars without paying the Big mechanic guy on your local. keep up the great job and god bless you.
Been wrenching on car for 30 years, listening to this video and closing my eyes brings me back to so many driveway projects. Crazy flood of memories!
People: you cant just make a repair tutorial video with almost no speaking and expect people to understand Chris: observe
I just heard his voice all the time in my head like "grab a breaker bar" "add some medium strength tread-locker and torque them down to the right spec.
I think you mean “hold my soapy wooder”
@@jappesp97 Thats what happens when some effective speaker speaks. Words are inscribed into your head.
Oh yeah? Mr Subaru did it for years...he speaks now but his old vids were like this.
i think you mean : "ChrisFix : JUST watch !!"
Been waiting all day It feels so weird not hearing him yell into the camera
I like the no-yelling approach.
Exactly. I prefer the yelling approach though.
Now this, is the asmr ive been needing, im a car guy myself and this is just perfection 😌 nothing quite like some good o'l ratchet sounds
Wow, loved the edits and filming in this video. You're getting some real skills at this stuff!
"Honey the helmet man has stopped talking to his car!"
"I wonder why suddenly the silent treatment"... xD ahah
You meant the Stig from Top Gear 😂😂😂😂 tool Stiggg 😂😂
ChrisFix has truly made April Fool's a holiday for me
yeah, he went through all the joke products
Haha ya defo Love the channel it’s crazy to think me and Chris are the same age

@@creeperstomp2727 idk
Dude, I can not tell you how much I appreciate and enjoy your videos. Thank you so much, it has helped me tremendously.
Should definitely consider doing another one of these. This was amazing
Chrisfix has gotten so good at making instructional videos that he doesn’t need to talk and you understand everything and are ready to do it yourself
I liked yr comment then I saw yr last name lol
I reckon it's actually easier cause your brain doesn't have to concentrate on trying to remember the names of the parts you're interacting with so you can just following along at your own pace visually.
@@lukeslayer ya that makes sense
Agreed
I was going over every step in my head as he did it. He has done something magical.
I like April Fools just because its basically a guaranteed ChrisFix video haha
Exactly !!
I never thought of it that way🤔
Blinker fluid gangggggg
@@lowkeycraig9330 yup bro
Yeah chris
What a therapeutic video 😂🤌🏾🔥
12:00 I cannot believe how you did that painting with out getting it on the new wheel bearing!!!! Hats Off To You!!! BEST
Imagine walking out one day just to see Chris fix fixing his car in silence? I'd think i went deaf!
Would have been a great April fools video to just not include any audio hehe. I would be blaming youtube for being broken
I’d be more concerned walking out and seeing someone working on their car with a racing helmet on.
@@Fisher1903I would be thinking my speakers was broken!
I thought there was something wrong with the sound. He has a really nice voice.
even though hes not talking, i can just hear him talking about what we need to do in each step
Same
Same
Haha
same, i loved it though. great to do here and there
Yes
It's real good to show comparison of before and after noise. I find that so important in most all instances. The only other way to know would be from experience, which I don't have.
@ChrisFix A very useful tip for cleaning smaller bolts: insert them into the chuck of any electric drill, apply some oil, and then hold a wire brush against the threads, or fine sandpaper around the shank. Just a sweet tip for those without that awesome machine you had for the bolts.
Great idea :)
Your drill must have a really big chuck if it can accommodate 14mm hex heads.
I always like how ChrisFix does an April Fool's day, Christmas, and other holiday videos. Plus he does them so well, and you can still learn from them. Thanks for the hard work ChrisFix!
Don't forget about the piston return springs😂
Always useful to know how to change your blinker fluid!
And change your muffler bearing, when it make some noise !
It's kinda weird because in my country is april 2
I just installed a fart filter. It works great...
This isn't even a prank, this is actually satisfying. Especially the Torque Wrench clicks.... Gives me the shivers... Good ones
them clicks are pure eargasm
@@itsdokko2990 Learning how to fix cars in high school, the Torque Wrench was always my favourite tool for that specific reason
@@coastaku1954 in which highschool's they teach u how to fix cars?😳
@@relansis6962 Many High Schools in Canada have Auto Shop programs. Mine specialized in Trades so my school’s shops were much more machined
@@coastaku1954 here in NYC is hard to find one 😭
Perfect timing! I'm going to be doing this over the weekend! Thanks!
Duuuude this asmr was sick! I'd love to see more of this content. Honestly some top tier stuff. Peace out ☮️✌️
I feel as if Chris made the video then uploaded it without realizing he never overdubbed it. “Ah screw it, it’s an ASMR video now.”
he whispered in the beginning though
@@sylvezar3881 neighbors were sleeping
@@sylvezar3881 wouldn’t be a chrisfix video if he didn’t say his iconic line.

Or it was for April fools

S O A P Y W O O D E R*
Lol

Oh my gosh this is absolutely mind boggingly perfect !
Literally my favorite KZhead Channel thank you ChrisFix for all your content

Yup hard work pays off

Hey, I learned something and relaxed to it. Awesome vid man, keep up the great work 👍🔥
unironically one of the best ASMR videos out there
This is just like when I replace bits on my car, except with 8000% less swearing.
Chris probably was just remixed the sound so we did not hear him say Mother F***ker I was not asking (when the homemade breaker bar came out)
I didn’t know car repairs could be done with out cussing
@@lpeter5781 gotta get a good knuckle bash and a loud f@%# in at least once with every repair or it ain't done right. That's how my repairs seem to go at least. Lol.
Gf: He’s probably cheating on me Me: *why do i hear his voice in my head*
I don't get it
@@makeupmonsterGAGA watching the asmr vid i hear his every step of each thing he’s doing
@@makeupmonsterGAGA it's also a meme
Excellent video Chris. Best thing the video are so GOOD that they are self explanatory.
Thank you @chrisfix I got both sides done in a few hours without the hub puller as none of the auto stores had any to rent so I beat the crap out of those hubs
It just isn't the same without the "Out with the old, and in with the new"
I read this in his voice
I did the same thing
@@SkateClipsAndTips me too
Chrisfix is so good that even when he doesnt talk I still understand what he's doing
The mark of a good videographer, no sound needed. The shot composition and action will tell the story; sound just adds extra texture.
Facts
Definitely need another asmr like this. It was soothing
THANK YOU CHRIS FOR YOUR VIDEOS. I HAVE LEARN SOO MUCH, AND BECAUSE OF YOUR VIDEOS, I FIX MY CAR MYSELF. ITS SCARY AT FIRST THEN ITS EASY. I HOPR YOU KEEP IT UP WITH MORE TUTORIAL VIDEOS..
still a better asmr than people eating mc donald’s
Is it just me or could you still hear him even tho he didn’t talk like in the back of your mind
Excellent Video. Well edited and presented, great camera angles! Simple and straight forward. Appreciated Much!
Doing all 4 hub assemblies on a subaru took around 8 hours, then again I didn't have proper tools for the job haha! Nice video, saw some good tricks in there. One word of advice to people doing this, also replace your brakes at the same time. 2 for 1 job!
When Chris is at the level where he doesn’t even have to explain or speak in his videos for them to be good.
He’s always been there, we just love his voice that motivates us 😄
Honestly, the video may be cursed, but its still more useful than 90% of the others out there. Well done
Lol thanks!
It's just so satisfying. Did not know fixing cars can be this enjoyable :)
Please do more of this! You have a nice soft spoken and whisper voice with excellent attention to detail. The only thing I would change is to lower the hammer and banging sounds significantly.
Neighbor: What’s he doing this time? Other neighbor: I don’t know but he’s being suspiciously quiet this time...
Lol
I think he's sick
If every class was as detailed as this and didnt even need a word, i would go to class everyday
Ikr
This is thr most ASMR I have ever experienced. No fighting with any parts. It all cooperated with you. LoL!! Awesome video Chris 👍
Having to tell myself what was happening for each step really helped to drive home what you taught in the commentated wheel bearing videos.
He really said “Hey Guys ChrisFix Here!!!” In lower case😂
He said it in cursive
The whole world is too loud for me now lol
Being a mechanic for a living. I struggle to realize how this was so soothing.
I found it soothing even as someone who's hardly ever wrenched anything
The idea of doing/making stuff yourself is a lot nicer than actually doing/making stuff yourself
Same.
@@Felixkeeg 🤯
That is a genius idea using the tool box tray to keep track of bolts and used sockets. Definitely using that for my next project.
We need more of these ASMRS!
I'd never thought chrisfix would do an asmr XD
wtf is asmr?
@@Smokey420Greenleaf im not sure but video without any loud noises. No talking or nothing else. Somebodys watch asmr befor they sleeping. Its helps them sleep (not for everyone) "Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response"
But its good I like it
The pranks get better and better every year
They really do!
@Tactical Hybrid12 the asmr or the wheel bearing?
@Tactical Hybrid12 Pay attention to the sounds. There's a pseudoscientific thing called ASMR making the internet rounds.
I love your video's even in ASMR your videos help me so much! One day if you didn't make a video of it already, may you show us how to replace your Radio with one of those modern displays?
Look, I saw the publishing date on this, but I lowkey want one of these for every video you do. That was outstanding. I could let it play while I was working and not be too distracted. Amazing. Love it. Also, brilliant joke. But holy crap such quality content ALWAYS.
everyone probably imagined the "OUT WITH THE OLD AND IN WITH THE NEW" its a classic
I cannot get that shit out of my head, it's just there everytime, even if he don't say anything
Imagine you’re waking by and you see a guy with a helmet on whispering to his car 🥵😂
You might still be asleep then
Yeah ts kinda weir hehe
The “soapy wooder” whisper was my fav part lol
