CSC Rear Hub Replacement

[rhino65]

Got a rear bearing going bad on my California Sidecar conversion. I already have the 30 mm socket & torque wrench. Is a gear or wheel puller also needed? Use the hub assembly from 97' Chevy cavalier or the one from CSC? Any other tips welcomed as well

This is Will at California Sidecar. Please buy the new part first. Once you have the new part in hand, you will see that you do not need a puller. You will need to remove the fasteners from the lower A-arm and swing the upright out towards you, dropping the half shaft out. Now remove the 3 bolts holding the hub assemble to the upright and replace the new.

Please feel free to call me with any questions at CSC. 1-800-824-1523 (Will)

Sounds easy enough. Thankyou

Ain't it great when a tech from the manufacture reaches out and tells you what to do
