Re: Wheel Bearing or???? Help Please

Hey Guys, by doing the wiggle test I found out that it was the drivers side front causing the trouble.

Bob I know you are going to be mad at me, but right now I think I can only afford to do one. I might do the other side with my next paycheck.

But anyways, removed the old one today (which came off suprisingly well) but have one very important question. All the wheel bearings I have replaced had a washer between the axel nut and the wheel hub. When I removed the axel nut, expecting to have to remove a washer, I was suprized to find that there wasnt one. So I just went ahead and put the new wheel bearing on and torqued everything down.

Arent these supposed to have washers between the axel nut and wheel hub? If so, rich or bob, could one of you guys get me the part number? Maybe this is why the bearing was acting up in the first place.... (some idiot didnt re-install the washer)

Any info is greatly appreciated.....

Thanks!

BTW, I used the BCA Premium Hud from O'reilley's for $130.00.
