jack up the car and spin the wheel, if the wheel makes a loud rolling sound then your bearings are probly gone, just take off the center cap, then pull out the greasy split pin, undo the wheel nut and theres ya bearings. |

Mine were fucked cos the wheels would move side to side and make a clunking noise when i was driving. All that needed doin was repacking. They are about $80 for a new front or rear set, but cost a shitload to get put in by a mechanic if u dont know how. if they are on the drive wheels it would cost about $300 all up cos, but on the fronts would cost about $100 or so. |
