just driving along and minding my own business and not being hard on the Dawg when all of a sudden i heard this nasty noise coming from the front right side of my truck, seeing as how i just put my springs on last night i was quiet conserned i was fixin to loose the fornt axle. i was almost home (about a block away) and so i got to the house and started lookin. what did i find? nothing. so i jacked up the front end on the passenger side and what did i find? the whole rotor and hub was loose.......so i took the tire off, took the hub cap off, and what did i find in there?
outer bearing:
so ummm, yeah i found out what causeing the noise, it come out just like that too. little bearings all inside the hub lol. oh well.....10 bucks for a new bearing and some grease. inner bearing was fine. i will be pulling the driver side off shortly just to check and make sure.
see what happens when you buy an axle someone else put together and you trust them alittle to much!
