Wheel click noise 86 Brat


Recommended Posts

I have a clicking noise coming from the left front Wheel/axle. Doesnt sound like a CV problem. (been there...) Anyway it clicks about once a revolution under any condition except braking. Accellerating, cruising, coasting with the clutch, in, 2/4wd, whatever. Swapped wheels, Examined the brakes. No sign of anything hitting. I can't seem to duplicate it by rotating the wheel when the car is jacked up. Any thoughts???

There's some good posts on here about replacement procedure..... it's not totally straight-forward if you know what I mean. Another Subaru oddity....

 

Autozone carries Timken brand bearings for the front for I think $13 or so each. You need two for each side of the car. And also the seals - those are about $5 each.
