I changed my 2 front wheels bearings, BUT the one on the left side was a little loose . It's crazy, because it's new... Maybe I damaged it when I put it in place.
I dismantled evrythings another time :?
This time I used REAL bearings : KOYO
When you push out the "wheel hub", it always comes with the bearing inner ring (blue arrow) :
Then you have to remove the big "circlip" to push out the bearing.
The wheel hub, without the inner ring, I (gently) used an angle grinder to remove it.
I cleaned everythings, apply some grease... and used my hydraulic press tu push the new bearing into place (it's not easy has it seems):
Then put the circlip into place, and push the hub in the bearing (using my hydraulic press) :
Everythings is in place ! Now there is absolutly no loose ! I rebolted everythings on the car.
Remember it may seem a bit loose until you tighten up the hub nut.
When I put mine in one side was very loose and had about 2mm of play in it, once I put the hub nut on and torqued it up all movement was gone. The hub nut clamps it all in place
I have to clean it a little, I think I'm going to "sand blast" it... I'm not sure about a complete paint job, It's to expensive. I'll try to fix the rust myself, I'm going to take some welding lessons
And the BBS are comming SOON !!!

Yes I know, but it was loose when I tightened up the hub nut to.
I think I damaged it.

Especially seeing how rare the color actually is......
But you just sent it through the roof... that thing looks AWESOME!

Well payed sir, well played!
I think 90% of the RT4WD (Shuttle) here have this color... 10% are white ^^

In the begining I didn't want to cut the stock rear parcel shelf... And finally :
The OEM rear wires were a mess to find, and they were very very short.
