Car Forum / Honda Cars / July 2004Prelude wheel bearings
I have been told that the rear wheel bearings on a prelude are not changeable, is this true? It is a 92 My civic is like that too, you have top change hte whole assembly > I have been told that the rear wheel bearings on a prelude are not > changeable, is this true? It is a 92 You probably have the cheaper to build, costlier to replace, integral hub bearings. These have the inner bearing ring as normal, but the outer ring is a hardened region of the hub itself. Once the balls get worn, or the outer region damaged, you get a complete new hub. Check parts places for the best deal. Should be about C$100 / US$80 each.

I doubt anybody would only want $100 CAN for the prelude one, since it's proprietary. 'Curly' List price for a 95 odyssey $240.39 You must be including the labor and the dealer's option to mark up the price of the parts. Or maybe you needed both sides?

'Curly' > I doubt anybody would only want $100 CAN for the prelude one, since it's > proprietary. I replaced a rear bearing/hub on my 90 Integra for $170 CDN two years ago. Part is available at most auto part stores. Very easy to do BTW. Carl >>I doubt anybody would only want $100 CAN for the prelude one, since it's >>proprietary.
