TerryB Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Hi everyone, new member. I have a grinding noise in the left front wheel area, just replaced axles a couple of months ago (also replaced rotors and pads). I am now getting a grinding noise, I thought it was brakes (turns out not to be). Perhaps the bearings? hard to do? any other solution other than replacing them? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Welcome, yes that could well be the bearing. Lif the wheel off the ground and check for play. Its not a hard job to replace the bearings, nor are they expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowman Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 SOA bearing kits are around $40-$50. You don't need any special tools...just a chisel to pop the hub loose from the control arm and a large brass drift to tap the bearings in and out.
