Will this allow me to re&re the front wheel bearings on my 2007 Toyota Matrix without the need for other special tools like a shop press?

This tool allows you to press out the old bearing and install the new one without removing the spindle/steering knuckle/bearing housing. Once you've removed your brake hardware and pulled the axle shaft out of the inner bearing, you just add this tool as the directions state and go from there. I do recommend you add bearing grease to the threaded shaft, as this shafts threads are quite fine. I replaced the threaded shaft and nut with an acme-threaded shaft and nut, which is much stronger and works much better. Hope this helps.

ok there s something people forget to say, 1 sometimes in the rust, before oyou remove the bearing, there's a snap ring to remove, i seen some thar are pretty well hidden in the rust2 for every bearing job no matter what car, you need to clean the hole in wich you will insert the bearing, and clean it well, this will ensure propper installation and prevent from damaging the bearing, even if it is a pressfit, it should get in pretty easy, once the axle back in place, very important to torque to the exact spec, each bearing/car has a different spec

Yes, this kit is a very good one and will allow you to remove and replace the "pressed-in" wheel bearing your car has, without having to use a "shop press". This awesome tool takes the place of an external press by allowing you to keep the hub/knuckle assy' on the car. Just remove the CV axle and hub (using a hub puller) and this tool will pass through the wheel bearing hole, allowing you to extract & replace it using the supplied disks. Thanks for asking your question and please ask further if needed!

I have not looked at the matrix bearings but so far I haven't come across a a car I couldn't to with the kit

Absolutely. You remove the axle nut, brake caliper, caliper bracket (may have to remove backing plate) and CV joint from hub (may require taking tie-rod end and lower ball joint loose). Remove the hub with a slide hammer (OTC 4579). Remove bearing retaining clip at back side of bearing and press out bearing with the Alltrade 648741 Kit. Reverse procedure to install. Follow the directions that come with tool. I would recomend installing a new hub with the bearing, they can be purchased as a set.

There is nothing specific about this kit, it WILL fit your basic everyday cars with its various sizes and adapters. I'm a professional Auto Tech and out of the hundred bearings I've changed with this kit, never had an issue! U jus have to know what your doing of course!

I, personally, don't have spacers between my bearings. So, I would say yes because this helps with pulling your bearing out of your wheel.

Nothing exotic, it comes with the bearings installed. You can find videos on youtube that show the whole process.Scott

Yes. I would rather buy a non -toyota mat which would follow the contours of the wheel wells. Some on the forms, mention Weathertech and 3D.

No. Just remove the auto hubs and slap on the manuals. There are some "how to" videos on You tube.

Yes. I used my original spaces that I pulled out of wheels and bearing that came with my rolling blades.

I haven't personally tried these bearings for that application. I do know that Boschsells replacement top bearings, those are made for a compression fit. Hope this helps.

I have a skate tool and there is a screw driver in it that I use to take the bearings out. That's one way. The other way is getting the Bones bearing press puller tool.

None Really, you want to use Acetone, you can buy it at any Hardware Store. Be sure to remove any removable rubber seals the bearings may have first, you can clean those with soapy water (Dawn Dish Soap), and can remove them by gently prying them with a small pocket or pen knife (kind of dull and very thin is best) pry up from inner smaller diameter ring.

Not sure what you mean by 'press fit', but to replace, you remove the old. It might screw off backwards, but if not, then you have to pry it off, which will destroy the old coupling but not hurt the shaft. Then you simply screw on the new, then turn the blender on to tighten it. There are videos on the internet which show the process.

Yes, you'll to remove original bearing cup be careful not to damage it. Also will need a cable cover to protect fork lockout cable and will cut fork to prior length A bikeshop will charge about $10-25 to get it changed over

No, I don't think so. You will need the one half inch for wheel nut removal

Yes. But you have to press the old bearing out and the new one in. They are for the front. There is no hub assembly unfortunately, I've looked everywhere

This item is a simple tool. If you actually need a physical press to get a bearing out because of being in there forever or tight tolerances. Its not designed for that.

Yes, I don't see why not. I have a Toyota Matrix and its perfect. The only difference would be that there would be more extra length cord to wrap up after securing everything.

Should work great, if need you can change the bearing with high quality sealed bearing.
