Title: Rear Wheel Bearing Feedback
Post by: 318lotis on February 08, 2013, 08:26:54 PM

Its that time, i've got a roaring lion in my trunk.  Opinions, feedback will be helpful.

    I have a parts car with good wheel bearing. should i replace wheel bearing on daily driver or use parts car and replace entire wheel hub assembly??

   I know there are some underneath experts out there.


                                       CHEERS!

Or if your trailing arm bushings look at all suspect just pull the entire rear subframe and do the bearings, rebuild the axles if needed, new diff bushing, new RTABs, maybe some stainless lines (or just new rubber ones) and the subframe mounts. Or you know, just do both bearings, not just the one side.
