Replacing the rear wheel hub assembly
 

What year ?

1999 - 2005 :

4 bolts hold hub assembly to knuckle.. remove the wheel, capiler assembly, rotor. and smack the back side of bearing with hammer, if not seized due to rust, it should pop out.

Re-assemble in reverse order.

ok, sounds easy, but just to make sure. can you provide me a how to remove the capiler assembly? i want to assure no damage to my brake system at all and that performance ends up right. thanx a lot!!!:)

Remove the (2) bolts that hold the mounting bracket to the spindle (bracket contains the inner-outer pad, and caliper is bolted to it via the caliper mounting pins).. you will need a 14mm socket, a little bit of extension to get through the suspension, remove the (2) bolts, lift caliper/mounting bracket off rotor.

thanx a whole lot!!! i will jump on it asap and let you kno how everything turned out =)

its a good thing you wrote tam85. i have been in need to thanking sbr711 for his help but have not been able to find my way to it and having reformated my pc didnt help me to remeber either. it wasnt till i just saw the notification in my email that i realized i had to testify. i already successfuly replaced this part. it was pretty easy. im sure i could do it again in less the time. it only took me about 25 mins more or less. thank you tam85 for your concern. you guys are awesome. Grace & Peace

Is this process the same for a 2008 Santa Fe awd. My wife's rr bearing is going out and I'm planning on replacing the hub. I've done mechanical work before and not shy about it, just want to know if the are any major differences in the year and the fact it's awd. I'm assuming there's going to be a axel not to take off. Any help is greatly appreciate. Thanks.
