How Do You Replace The Wheel Bearings On A 94 Mercury Topaz?
Thank you, great article, it helped me a lot, I just ran into this problem, bought salvage auto parts for this, and now I’ll go and work on replacing the wheel bearings.
The front wheel bearings on a 1994 Mercury Topaz are pressed into the steering knuckle. This requires the steering knuckle to be removed and the bearing to be pressed out and the new one brought back in on a press. Your local auto parts store or auto shop can press them out for you, but you will still save a lot of money taking it apart and putting it back together yourself. Disassembly Step 1 Raise and support the side of the vehicle you’ll be working on with jack stands. Be sure to place the stands out of the way of the wheel area so you have plenty of room to work. Step 2 Remove the brake caliper by pulling out the caliper bolts with the proper size 3/8-inch drive socket and wrench. Remove the caliper and hang it out of the way with a piece of wire. Remove the caliper bracket bolts and caliper bracket, and slide the rotor off the hub. Step 3 Remove the axle nut using the correct size 1/2-inch drive socket and a large breaker bar or pipe for leverage. Once removed, push the axle back
