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!!!

taking them apart like that is easy, problem is you have to replace not just the balls but the races as well, one is pressed onto the hub shaft and the other into the knuckle itself. it has to be pressed out and the new one pressed into the knuckle and the hub pressed into the new bearing, the old race can be taken off by cutting a slit into it with a grinding wheel and then using a hammer and chisel to split it, it'll come right off. mine were way different. it had a two chainber compartment within the housing and created a dual bearing/spinny action... or am i way fcuking off? i know my problem is fixed and i see how it works... pics of this; that you speak of breakdown pics = fine and dandy i wanna doubble check my work here. i was just kinda "figuring it out for myself" as i usualy do... Dont bash autozone I'm with easternpiro1 on this man... i'll bash autozone all day long. my local AZ is full of retards that only wanna see jacked up compensation trucks and anyone else is a retard in their eyes. i once asked about getting new spark plugs (ngk iridium of corse ) and he told me NGK NEVER made plugs for anything other than farm equipment. but the girl in o'riliey across the street is a fcuking badass!! seriously; trust the Irish!! -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!!
