uniberp1 Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 (edited) I suspected a wheel bearing was going out, and then the brakes started to squeak. When I put the car up on a jack the wheel didn't wobble at all. After I changed out the brakes, and put the wheel back on, it wobbled quite a bit. The pads must have been close to the disc and prevented wobble. Afterwards, the extra space between the pads and rotors allowed the wobble to become obvious. Live and learn. Next time, I'll compress the caliper and check for wobble. It will take RAuto a week to get me the bearing. I went with SKF. They don't list an NTN.

somick Posted March 13, 2019 Share Posted March 13, 2019 Make sure you double check what roach auto sends you. Their data base is very inaccurate and they will stick you with the wrong stuff. Good luck, Sam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CNY_Dave Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Wheel bearings that are loose typically will wiggle in any direction, if you make sure to also wiggle with your hands +/- 90° from the caliper, the caliper will have the least influence. Of course the rack etc will want to move as well as any loose tie rod ends as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
