Introduction
Operation carried out on a Nissan Note Phase 2 (E11E) 1.4 i 16V 88 hp.
The new bearings that will be fitted are SKF - VKBA 3525.
For this vehicle, I have neither a user manual nor a technical review, therefore I do not know the capacities or the tightening torques.

First, place chocks at the front and back of your front wheels to make sure the car doesn't move, then release the handbrake.
-
-
-
-
The drum is blocked by the nut, so it must be removed.
-
If you don't have a wrench, you can use a 30mm socket and an extension that will act as a lever arm.
-
-
-
Remove the drum by rotating and pulling on it at the same time.
-
Take the opportunity to clean your brake shoes with brake cleaner and the bearing surface with a wire brush and a cloth.

Old bearing reference

-
Using a pair of circlip pliers, remove the circlip so that the bearing can be removed.

Old coins

New parts
-
The bearing surface must be clean and burr-free.
-
-
-
Spray with lubricant to make it slide more easily.
-
Position the bearing in the bore.
-
Rolling doesn't make sense.
-
To make the operation easier, you can leave your bearing in the freezer beforehand. The cold will shrink the metal and reduce friction during reinstallation.

-
Bearing in thrust.
-
Free groove for the circlip.
-
Once the bearing is at the stop, you can insert the new circlip.
-
-
-
Finally, replace the drum, lock it by tightening the new nut to the prescribed torque, then put on the nut cover and the wheel.
-
You will notice that the new nut does not allow the 3 threads to protrude like the old one did.
-
This is because the nine is higher.
