Below we will discover the steps on how to disassemble and replace the rear wheel bearing of the Toyota RAV 4. First, let's lift the vehicle and start disassembling and removing the front wheel; then we unscrew the screws that secure the rear brake caliper with a socket wrench, applying pressure on the caliper piston, as shown in the video.

Once the caliper is detached, it will be possible to remove the old pads or shoes, then unscrew the central nut of the wheel bearing to remove it; let's replace it with the new one, reassembling the braking system.

How to Remove the Rear Seat of a Hyundai Tucson?

To remove the rear seat of a Hyundai Tucson, follow these steps. Start by moving the front seats to their most forward position to gain space. Next, locate the release lever on the underside of the rear seat, near the floor. Press this lever down while pulling the seat upwards to unlock it from the anchor pins. Once unlocked, tilt the seat upwards and forwards to remove it from its position. Repeat this process for both sides of the rear seat. Be careful of any electrical cables or components that may be connected to the seat during removal. Once the rear seat is removed, the disassembly is complete.
