Well I'm going to take the plunge next weekend. I need to replace the rear bearings. I haven't found a great deal of info on this so I'd like to ask for any and all advice anyone could offer. I will be replacing the pads while i'm at it. Anyone willing to loan the Miller 9199 tool?

 

Also interested in this without finding a ton of helpful info in previous threads. Bump.

 

Probably not a lot of info out there because I've never heard of one go bad on these cars. Is yours making noise?

The easiest would probably be to remove the hubs and bring them to the dealer to swap the bearings.

 

I doubt if anyone has one to loan, as I can't recall anyone replacing the rear wheel bearings.
That said, YOU could be the most popular guy on the block by getting this one from fleabay for $99 ( from Miller it's $465 ):

( This one also has the "make an offer:" box )

Most people would either use a couple sockets, some all thread and nuts or bearing step plates of the correct diameter and a large c clamp.
