  1. That's pretty sweet. If only other cars came with it standard...like my R33!
  2. I just found an 8-row oil cooler in front of my 93 Corolla radiator. Is this standard equipment on these models??? Otherwise i bought the car completely stock. Thanks lads
  3. Yeh the shaft is 160 and bearing 60, got it rounded off to $205. Hmmm, i'll call around workshops and see what the price is looking like, if it's $120ish then i'll save on getting the press, die's etc. Thanks
  4. Wow, great tutorial RollaMods. Yeh i'll have to get those tools, but i'll make some calls to see how much labour will cost. Might be reasonable. I called CBC and they're giving me a half-shaft, CV joint and bearings all for $205. I spoke to Graham and he said i can remove the old assembly, put the new one on and whack on the old wheel hub. Will this be a bolt off-bolt on job cause i'm hoping i won't need to press the bearings in/out with this setup. Thanks again for all the top advice fellas. :)
  5. Thanks for that! I thought i could remove the CV joint and half shaft without undoing the tie-rod end? But the strut and knuckle i need to undo, agreed. So my list has on it: High temp grease Breaker bar Torque wrench (not the cheapo ones) sockets (what sizes do i need that aren't in a regular socket set?) new CV joint & bearings what about the press for the bearings? Wtf does it do? Cheers!
  6. OK so far you guys have advised i get the following- by the way it's the front-right wheel of an AE92: "Castrol HTB (High Temperature Bearing) Grease ($10 for a whole tub)" Fair enough, that's easy. "torque all the bolts up to their specified levels" So i need a torque wrench, how much are they, like $100 right? What about a breaker bar? Or the wrench will do? (Hope you got the corolla service manual to help you out) Yeh got that off the net. "press so you can press the old bearing off." What's the name i give to Repco? A 'bearing press'? Also do i need a replacement cotter pin? Cheers fellas. Also my CV joint is stuffed. Far as i know i can use the same stuff as above (torque wrench/grease) to do the job? Any more advice i'm all ears :P
  7. Hey fellas, doing the busted bearing tomorrow. Any tips before i get the wheel off? Also what's the best grease to use to lubricate the bearing? Thanks
