Title: I found the noise!!!!
Post by: Robbo on June 04, 2006, 16:44:41

ok wheels now off...its the right hand wheel bearing/s.
So how easy is this to do? and what parts might i need?
the crunching noise was helped by the leading shoe pull-off spring freely dangling as well! so will have to put that back as well - how easy is it to bleed brakes ???

Cheers Robbo - some say driver of Daisy...

you dont need to bleed the brakes to do a wheel bearing

but if you need to bleed them
get your self an easy bleed from halfords about £16 makes life real easy
a great investment

I'm doing the shoe as well! and my pedal needs a little pumping at the mo so I assume there is air in the system somewhere?

you dont need to bleed to do the shoes, but spongy pedal is probibly air in the system. eazy-bleed kit is the best way of doing ive found.

Might be the pumping is the brake cylinders expanding due to the adjustment being out, do the shoes first, adjust up and take it for a road test

right...ordered me bits needed from the Haynes book of lies. Plus I asked the chappy at the dealers too.

Now...since I have freewheelers on me axles do I need to doo anything special when removing them?
cheers
