Hey guys

so this metal marbles noise is getting pretty bad and i figure ill just replace the whole hub now to keep it from coming back (instead of just tightening the axle nut)- going to try to tighten the nut on monday but im almost positive its not going to fix the sound/ problem

is there anyone who can point me in the right direction to get the minimum amount of parts ill need to replace it...

and is there anyone who has the tools/ can help me do it or do it for me? Youll get an awesome lunch or dinner!!

thanks in advance!

when are you getting the noise? I think i need to get a new axle nut because i have a weird sound when taking off from a start most of the time lol

You won't be able to do it yourself unless you have a tool to press the bearings. Refer here for local mechanics

or finding a part out and replacing the whole hub assembly. i picked mine up locally for like 50 bucks. at this point the only tools you'll need is a ball joint remover (i think thats what its called).

I have a ball joint remover if you need one, but the an easy way to get it out is just use a nice heave deadblow mallet. You hit the side of the control arm where the ball joint is inserted so that the metal compresses and squeezes the conical ball joint out.

i can order you the part at rock honda.. then you can decide if you want to have your friend do the install or have one of our techs do it. i have a few that i use for my car and friends cars. some of the guys dont mind doing the work under the table for you at a discount rate. all parts i can get you are brand new OEM.
