fuzzys69 Posted May 25, 2015 Report Share Posted May 25, 2015 Hi I'm new here and my wheel bearing is bad. I'll be changing it this weekend. I haven't looked at it to closely and I was wondering what tools are needed. On my other trucks I usually just use a 3 jaw puller. Will that work on my 2011 Edge. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks For the rear wheel bearings(hub assemblies) you will need sockets(recommend 6-pointers to help prevent rounding the rusted bolts),20in or longer breaker bar, PB Buster for rust bolts, 5lb slide hammer and hub puller attachment, torque wrench that can go pass 250 ft/lb(258fl/lbs to be exact for the axle nut),and patience. For the front wheel bearing(hub needs to be pressed into the steering knuckle) you will need the same items as the rear but replace the slide-hammer/hub puller for a press and ball-joint separator and add bungee cords to hold brake calipers.
