    Rear Wheel Bearing

    My rear passanger side wheel bearing has been slowly getting noisier.

    I have been told that its not worth the trouble to change the bearings, but to get a whole new hub?

    Anyone have any experience changing the rear hub? and how difficult was it.... could I do it easily enough myself?

    easy as,
    from Honda I think you can only get the Hub Assy.
    if you got Drum brakes
    saftly jack the car up and support the vehicle with jack stands.take hand brake off, take your wheel off, take the drum off, you should now be able to see the hub, take the center cap off, and undo that big nut in there, the Hub slides off, slide new one on and put the washer in then do up the ( new ) nut tight, like 185Nm. then stake the nut with a drift onto the spindle. work shop manual recomends replacing the Nut,

    this is for an ED ??

    cool then you should be fine, if it had disk you would just have to take off the caliper and disk.

    good luck
