Rear wheel bearings

[Emik87t]

Has anyone ever changed the rear wheel bearings in their supra? Ill be changing them this weekend on a 91t and just wanted to know if i need any special tools or not? And do they need to pressed on and off?

Yes they are a pressed in item . You will need a press to get them in and out . There are a few tricks you can do to get around using a press . But I would recommend pulling the hub assembly and having them pressed out and in ..

Though it looks like you need a slew of SSTs, I did it easily with a set of large (>1") sockets and the races from the old bearing. You must have a press and a strong 2-jaw puller. Buy an extra grease seal, just in case, and follow the assembly procedure carefully.

If you don't already have the bearings, PM me and I'll show you a place you can get them (front or rear) for 1/4 the Ebay price.

Some say a slide hammer is the only way.
