UTV ATV Wheel Bearing Replacement

Nearly all ATVs and UTVs have similar wheel bearing and seal configurations with a common replacement procedure. Enjoy this video and put a comment if it helps you... or if you have other tips. This 2008 Rhino 700 was brought to me with the symptom of "when driving it sounds like a bunch of wrenches are being rattled inside a metal bucket". Changing wheel bearing and seals is an easy task if you have access to the right equipment. Watch and see for yourself.
