replace wheel bearing Jeep TJ 2000?
Hi Folks,
Now that I just completed replacement of a water pump and thermostate,
it appears my rear passanger wheel bearing might be going. I'm
experiencing a squeaking sound after a bit of driving. It doesn't
sound like the rear brakes. It's a metal against metal "screeching"
sound, therefore I suspect a bearing.
The jeep has about 145k miles on it and no bearings have been
replaced.
Has anyone completed this procedure? Any suggestions for completing
the job?
Thanks alot,
Nick

If I recall correctly, you will need a 36mm socket for the "center hub nut". I am
sure if I have my measurement wrong someone will correct me quickly.

36mm is correct, at least on the front hub. Just did mine last week. I
rented it for free from Advance Auto Parts.

Re: replace wheel bearing Jeep TJ 2000?
Thanks. Did you need an impact wrench to get the nut free or just use
a breaker? I have a 1/2" impact wrench and not sure if I should get
eh 36mm socket for it.
