Thread: front end noise, hub?

i think my hub is shot what you guys think?

YouTube - Hub noise gap

anyone know? im going to autozone tonight.

Take off your tires and see if the rotor will move back and forth. I had similar problem but wasnt near as loud and ended up being my rear hub.. If you can take off the wheel and just see if the rotor and hub shake back and forth that may be your problem. Plus the roads your driving on look pretty ****ty

That's DEF not a bearing hub. Bearing will grind and tick. That almost sounds axle related.

Here's a vid I made from my wheel bearing install though if you want to use it to help toubleshoot

you win, it was the axle boot that shreaded and was banging against everything. i cut the boot for now, no noise. will have to replace the axle soon.

ive replaced wheel hubs before and i couldnt think of anything else that would cause the noise, didnt even think of the axle boot as ive never had one go bad and most cv boots dont have the think rubber these do, due to the shape of the ujoint section. after i checked the wheel to see if the hub was bad which its solid as can be, i noticed grease everywhere and the boot shreaded and felt like an idiot.

also my sway bar snapped by the end link. must be a common failure point. oh and my tie rod end is bad.
