My wheel bearing took a ----, and i drove on it for a few weeks. Never froze up, but when i ewent to replace it, i found i needed a new spindle, it ate the walls up, and now that i have a new bearing, it still has play. Replace them before they get too bad.

dude that wrecked his civic at the track is a dumbass, you don't admit that to officals, you brag about your stupidity after you leave the track and go home.

I just replaced my left rear hub cause the bearing was shot. It made whirring noises that increased with speed for about a year. I finally got tired of it so I had to get a whole new hub cause the bearing itself is not serviceable. We had to cut part of the ---- off because I waited so long to fix it, but now its quiet as, ummmm, well lets just say its quiet now.

I had a girlfirend that had the same issues that you just described, I fiugred it was going to be a CV and bought a new pair of axels.
got over there to get to work on it and found it was just the tire lugs wernt tight enough and it was the tire bumping. it started out just slightly loose so it was fine going stright but made noises when turning.

well then your new calipers are deemed useless if you upgrade the front.

The Bearing has to be pressed out. it can be hit back in with a swedge and a hammer, but to get that bitch out without ------- the walls, take it(the knuckle) to a local repair shop and have them press it out most charge like 10-15 bux, if you go ask a tech they usually do it for free.
