Is there anyone around the Pittsburgh area with access to a press/hub shark? I need to replace both rear wheel bearings and am not having much luck finding a shop willing to take this on. Thanks, Ian

I'm not in the Pittsburgh area, but if you a Harbor Freight in your area, look for their wheel bearing press tool kit. Very similar to a hub shark, just a little cheaper.

Pep boys did mine for $50 in labor each.

 

I dont think the harbor freight bearing puller is getting the Audi hub out of there. Pop them off the car take them to a shop and have them pressed.

 

I would just give a few different shops/ dealers a call and ask if they can press and bearing in and out for you. Usually shops will charge you 20-50 bucks per bearing.

Good luck!

The diy I used said that you can just hammer the hub out the upright then use the harbor freight tool from there.
