This is the second time I've had to replace the hinge bearing. Two people are needed to accomplish this job. first, take all food items off the door.

, The video. It was really easy.

We removed the freezer door; then the refrigerator door. Took out the old hinge. (Which , by the way, did not look anything like the new one!) Placed the new one where the old one was, put the refrigerator door back on, then put the freezer door back on and now the door closes beautifully! Thank you!
