2012 Honda CRV Front Wheel Hub Assembly and Bearing Replacement

2012 Honda CRV Front Wheel Hub Assembly and Bearing Replacement

by Mark JohnsonNo Comments
UPDATE 3/23/2022 I need to remove the wheel bearing race from the NAPA assembly that I just installed in order to return them since the wheel hub is too large. When I remove the wheel hub, the wheel bearing will separate leaving a race on the wheel hub. METHOD 1 - Use a Wheel Bearing Separator Tool. McLaren Media has a great video about this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snlqFu6MMHU   Andy's Garage has a great video about this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wqs4dz-a7pA   UPDATE 3/22/2022 Hydraulic press was able to press out wheel bearing. Wheel bearing press in went pretty well using the ORION tool - having a breaker/cheater bar and bench vise makes it much easier. IMPORTANT NOTE FOR HUB PRESS IN USING THE ORION TOOL - ONLY PRESS ON THE INNER RING/RACE.  I pressed on the knuckle (that is used only for pressing in the wheel bearing) and it broke the wheel bearing. So I had to press out the hub, then the new wheel bearing. Using the ORION tool, I was able to press in...

White House 2022 Instagram Posts

I do my best to keep political views to in-person conversation and talk. This morning's post by the White House IG account boasting that our economy has seen the greatest growth is too much!  I only see these due to social media work that I perform - where some clients accounts follow the White House. Inflation is at it's highest in 40 years and many other aspects of our economy and business have deteriorated. The Biden administration said in a Washington Post article at the end of last year that they expect it to continue in 2022. https://www.washingtonpost.com/business/2022/01/12/december-cpi-inflation There may be a few metrics that have positive numbers, but the majority of the economy and business since COVID has not measured well. God help us all.  ...

The Best Leaders

The Best Leaders

by Mark JohnsonNo Comments
The best leaders, employers, directors and managers I’ve served found a way every time to work through differences - opinions, perspectives, lack of awareness., personalities, faults, failures, genders, etc.... Not pacifying or demanding perfection - finding balance for what’s best and showing respect. Avoiding polarizing career stereotypes and there familiarity. Willing to trust your proven performance and talent. I am amazed at how they balanced so many different types of people and skillsets to achieve the goal and find success. At the same time I’m amazed how poor leaders were allowed to do what they do. When I’ve lost that type of great leadership in my life, I thank God when I’m able to gravitate back toward it. Stay focused and do what is right - let the bad ones go - be a light sparking others and shining a reflection of a greater Light! ❤️ #truth #leadership #leaders #upline chaltonhiott...

Show A Little Kindness

Show A Little Kindness

by Mark JohnsonNo Comments
A Creed by Edgar Albert Guest: Let me be a little kinder, Let me be a little blinder To the faults of those around me, Let me praise a little more; Let me be, when I am weary Just a little bit more cheery, Let me serve a little better Those that I am striving for. Let me be a little braver When temptation bids me waver, Let me strive a little harder To be all that I should be; Let me be a little meeker With the brother that is weaker, Let me think more of my neighbor And a little less of me. Let me be a little sweeter, Make my life a bit completer By doing what I should do Every minute of the day; Let me toil, without complaining, Not a humble task disdaining, Let me face the summons calmly When death beckons me away. #wednesdaywisdom #wednesday...
