MR.COKER Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 So I know you can do it. But I have heard that you shouldn't remove the trailing arm. Anyone know why? Can anyone tell me or show me the steps to replace rear wheel bearings on my brat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

987687 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 (edited) Where did you hear not to remove the trailing arm? I guess you could do that, but you'd have to get a screw press for doing bearings in place. Kind of a pain. Here's how I did it back when I had minimal tools for working on cars and didn't know how to do much more than change a spark plug. http://www.ultimatesubaru.org/forum/topic/108429-pictorial-wheel-bearing-guide-4wd-rear/ The three bolts holding the outer trailing arm thingy on set the camber and the toe, so maybe that's why someone was afraid of taking it apart. You can get it back with a tape measure pretty easily. Edited February 5, 2016 by 987687 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRhere Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Before you loosen those 3 bolts, clean the area and spray some paint on. Match the paint line back up on assembly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
