OK. My car is hanging out of the garage jacked up. I'm going to bed now. Does anyone have experience with removing and replacing the rear wheel bearing on this model. I have the new assembly and just removed the old assembly, but it came off with the entire backing plate which now I can't separate from the hub flange. You tube has nothing.....anyone can help, it would be appreciated.

 

the plate is held in place by the same 4 screws as the bearing carrier so 'naturally' it will come off. But you should be able to separate it from the bearing. Likely it's just rusted together.

 

Thanks e3tom. I had to buy a new backing plate as I basically destroyed the whole unit, which was rusted together. So it was backing plate flange and wheel bearing assembly boss that was rusted together.
