Just a correction at the time line of 6:41 on your suggestion when finding the right shim size, The correct method is to use the thickest shim you have 1st, the reason for this is so when you torque the 4 bolts down you have not over loaded the bearings beyond the correct setting, I Have seen many bearings fail because people start with the thinner shim rather than the thicker one. It is a very simple thing but it saves any damage to the new bearings. Nice video and a fantastic job. My comment is only here to help others who are unaware and want to give it a go at home. Keep the vids coming

Hey mate, first of all great video with a lot of torque details which was really handy !! About the outer bearing that you first torque to 190nm and then re torque to 4NM, it doesn’t seem to be enough, my tyre move when I force on it by hand ! Do you think I should re right it firm by hand or is it not advised ?

REALLY GOOD TIP GUYS!! please have multiple of those bearing tools! Dosnt matter the brand because I tightened mine which was good but snapped when I went to loosen them! I thought it would be okay for the bearnings as long as I didn't drop the car on them tight but overnight it still destroyed the bearings 😢. Such a stupid tool (Another tip. If you break the tool at the pin.....drill it out with a 7.5mm drill bit and use the drill bit!) 😉👍🏼
