New hub assembly

Just had to order a new hub assembly. Started getting louder and louder around 55-60. Take a hard left curve and the sound goes away, once it puts load back on the right, the harmonic sound comes back. Ugh.

Wheel bearings are part of W body life. Literally

Everytime my buddy and I buy one to flip....we end up doing both front bearings because you know they are shot.
 
Well, I’m sitting here waiting on usps to deliver it. Taking the old one off, is it always a pita to remove? I got the four bolts out, but will not come off!

Got it off. Now just waiting on usps for the new one.

I did get the front lca’s and front brakes done. So that’s out of the way.

sometimes you need a BFH to bust em free. same goes for the axle splines. they need a tap to break em free sometimes.

make sure you tq that axle nut to 116 iirc hub might have a tag stating the tq spec.
 


It’s the rear hub assembly. I must have not mentioned that. Fronts are all good. Rear right had a bit of play and was audibly failing as well.

It’s all done now. Nice and quiet. Need to bleed brakes again. Stops much better but a tiny bit too much pedal for my liking. And wow, control arms made a huge difference. Oh, and here’s what it’s lowered on, not sure the brand springs but bumpstops are cut, strut had a label on the side that said struttek or something along those lines.

Rides so much more firm with the new control arms, and brakes are squeaky and rattling as I go down the road.

Sorry, I was typing while in a meeting, meant to say brakes AREN’T squeaky and rattling. Sorry.

Only way to do it. Weekends are the best here. And when we go on 24hr schedule, I take graves, so it’s nice and quiet.
