  Q: How to remove and replace a hub and bearing assembly on a Toyota Camry and Toyota Avalon?

  A: Loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle and support it securely on jack stands. Remove the wheel. Remove the brake drum or disc from the hub. If equipped, disconnect the wheel speed sensor. Remove the four hub-to-axle carrier bolts, accessible by turning the hub flange so that the large circular cutout exposes each bolt. To remove the four bolts that attach the hub and bearing assembly to the rear axle carrier, rotate the hub flange and align one of the holes in the flange with each of the bolts. Remove the hub and bearing assembly from its seat, maneuvering it out through the brake assembly. Remove the old O-ring from the hub seat and install a new one. Wheel bearing grease may be used to keep the O-ring in place before installing the hub-and-bearing assembly. Position the hub and bearing assembly on the axle carrier and align the holes in the backing plate. Install the bolts. A magnet is useful in guiding the bolts through the hub flange and into position. After all four bolts have been installed, tighten them to the torque. Install the brake drum, or disc and caliper, and the wheel. Lower the vehicle and tighten the lug nuts to the torque.
