It walks through pulling the tire and hub assembly, separating bearings with an impact driver, pressing new bearings back in, and reseating the two-piece seal with gasket maker. Useful for owners troubleshooting a leaking wheel seal or planning the same DIY repair.
Appears to be an owner or shop tech documenting a real repair job as it happens, not a dealer or marketing video.
In this case a piece of twine got wrapped around the seal area, which started the leak.
They used an impact driver putting out 250 foot-pounds of torque, after removing a snap ring, and confirmed with parts staff there was no second snap ring underneath.
No, the video shows switching to a press instead of beating on the bearings, then using the right socket size to seat the top bearing flush with no movement.
Take a chisel, put it in near the bearing seat, and pry back and forth on both sides until it pops out.
