Wheel Bearings i think

<< < (2/2)

bigruss:
so the only why i will know is to strip down the hub and have a look how will i know what part is knackerd and is it an easy job???

hobbit:
Fairly straight forward, the hardest part is tapping out the bearing racers, or if the bearing is stuck onto the stub

Range Rover Blues:
If the bearing is stuck on the stub you'll probably need a new one.  As stated above bearings tend to rumble when they're going but if you jack up the wheel and give the tyre a kick you might hear it knocking if there is excessive play.  Adjust the bearings to see if that changes anything.   Otherwise it's the hub off, stub axle off and withdrw the CV joint.  you should be able to feel any excessive wear in the CV just by spinning it in your hands.  Be careful though, it's often not the side you think it is!
