How do you replace the rear wheel bearing on the Smart 450?

Model: Smart Smart 450 - Years 1998-2007
Part: Bearing

To be able to replace the rear wheel bearing of your Smart 450 you have to go and lift the car with a jack or a bridge, so that the corresponding wheel is not in contact with the floor. After it has been lifted, it will be necessary to unscrew the bolts that fix it, so that it can be removed giving access to its rear parts. You will have to unscrew the screws that fix the brake caliper and also those that fix the hub, which can then be removed with a few outward blows of the hammer. This will allow you to remove the bearing in its center and replace it with a new one.
