MR2 Spyder Rear Knuckle Rebuild Part 1 - T3 Rear Knuckle Bearings

It's no surprise your MR2 Spyder is 19 to 24 years old and she is in need of some TLC. I'm rebuilding another MRS and this video series is focused on rebuilding the rear knuckle. It's the hub (no pun intended) for all the suspension arms. This video focuses on the 19 to 24 year old nonserviceable (yes, I made that word up) OEM rear knuckle bearing and how to remove it. I removed it off-vehicle using my press and some specialty tools because I'm rebuilding both rear knuckles. Yes, of course, you can do this on-vehicle, but I already had my knuckles removed when T3 graciously sent me their T3 Rear Knuckle Bearings (thank you thank you thank you T3). Also, this video exhibits how to install the T3 Rear Knuckle Bearings with relative ease. Grab some popcorn (or a pillow for a nap) and hang onto your seats because this video is once again packed with all my usual pro tips, great lighting, detail, and whimsical radio voice. Lastly, you the chapters to skip around as you please.
