So my passenger side rear bearing is bad and I purchased a new one. However after looking at the how-to on the stickies I see the hub comes with a nut. I searched some and that nut was called a "one-time use nut"...
Kind of a stupid question but can I reuse that nut somehow? How do I go about swapping the old hub onto the new bearing? -------------------- 1993 Celica GT Coupe - sold

changing a bearing is just like changing any bearing, you take off the hub or hit it out i guess if it works, there is a race piece from the bearing sometimes gets stuck on the hub, sometimes people cut it off or pull it off, press out the old bearing put in the new one. simple. not sure why buying a whole assembly is needed, thats only if the whole thing is damaged, i only change the bearings ONLY.
