Okay; so check this out;
it didn't happen first thing after the swap; but slowly emerged (within a week). quietly at first; but now it's getting really fcuking loud. I've already droped the tire and reallined the break/dust shield several times, (not the issue); then (remembering the D/S rotor conversion) i've swaped the pads arround (thinking they could be backwards), cleaned em (they had alot of debreis, but that may be unrelated) I've re-positioned the clips; i've remounted the tire a few times... (*NOTE: i have replaced the missing lugnuts the swap-shop fcuking lost...) yet this problem persists... last though is that maybe there is insufficient grease in the hub boot where it hits the bearing? here guys, listen for yourselfs!! (only watch the first few seconds of this first one, afterwords, we're making our plan and my photographer was oblivious to the "end-video" key. enjoy our conversation... lol) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=arIU_KJy6H4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1vdpGx6ZkQ IDEAS?!?! -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!!

well it's definitely giving off the tattle tale signs of the bearings not being properly packed when installed. it's now making a large squealing noise at regular driving speeds, and it's progressed from nonexistent to extreme within a few weeks. so i'll go ahead and run that test by removing the wheel; breaks; and rotors; but otherwise... i fear the worst here. damnit.
do we got a how to on how to PROPERLY pack and load the bearings around here? thanks guys!! -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!! D-man FTW!
