Rear wheel bearing?

can any1 give me instructions on how to change a rear wheel bearing on my 1996 pontiac voyager minivan?Rear wheel bearing?
Pontiac makes a minivan?



ADDED:

It's a complete hub assembly. +/- $80.00 each.

and just unbolts from the rear axle.



ADDED:

Rear drum.

Remove the wheel.

Remove the brake drum.

Remove the bolts from the BACK side of the axle.

It may be a pain in the @$$ to slide out as it probably rusted it's self in the axle tube.



Then reverse the procedure.Rear wheel bearing?
1st off you're gonna need to buy the whole hub assembly not just the bearing. that will cost around 85ish



is it disc or drum brakes? probably disc. so:

1st: take off your tire

2nd: remove your brake caliper assembly (theres two bolts holding your caliper together on the back side one on top one on bottom and if i remember right its an allen bit)

3rd: remove your brake rotor

4th: remove your drive axle nut

5th: the hub is held into the housing by three tabs each with a bolt in it, the front part of the hub (that you can spin) itself has three holes in it, THERE IS ONLY ONE HOLE OUT OF THE THREE THAT THE BOLT WILL COME OUT OF ITS CALLED THE %26quot;PEEKHOLE%26quot;!!! so you will need to spin the front part of the hub so it lines up with the bolts each time you take one out

6th: slide the hub out of its housing (make sure your whole rear end is level it will make removing the hub easier and not doing so could damage the splines on your axle, etc...

7th: put your new hub back on and redo all this crap



oh make sure to be careful with your brake caliper assembly when your ready to put your caliper back on your going to need to depress the plunger back inside the caliper with a 3 inch %26quot;c clamp%26quot; also make sure you dont be too rough with the caliper because you dont want to mess up the sensor position.



hope this helps, sorry for the lengthRear wheel bearing?

It,s not that hard, but you need to have the right bearing removal tool.Rear wheel bearing?
Are you absolutely sure it's a bearing ?? Very unusual for a vehicle this new. What is the problem before you get in over your head ? If you have a bearing out it will be leaking rear end lubricant. If you have a brake cylinder leaking it will be brake fluid. Find out which you are leaking. NEVER replace any part till you know the problemRear wheel bearing?
pontiac doesn't and never will make a voyager get the right van and e mail me. well put the van on jacks never seen a rear wheel bearing go out but i guess it is possible put in gear see if you can duplicate noise otherwise it a hit or miss noise does travel front remove tire unbolt 2 bolts that hold caliper on support caliper with coat hanger or bungy cord remove rotor take 3 bolts out hammer out if reat just onbolt wheel bearing be sure to use bigger hole to remove bolts and on front you will need to remove axle nuts
