Wheel bearing issue
Heya, I gotta 99 civic LX, and I'm trying to rebuild some 94 Integra LS front steering knuckles to swap into my car. I've replaced the following items:
Pads
Rotors
Rebuilt the caliper with new piston seals
I got brand new bearings from vatozone, and pressed them in, but the right side bearings are very wobbly and they chatter a little when they're spun. They don't exactly spin the most freely either, as though there's some resistance. I have a vid of it, but I gotta put it up after class. The left side seems fine.
I dunno how much more descriptive I should be, but if there's anything left vague just ask. Gracias

If it ended up being user error, I'll try to see if I can exchange it with one that's not damaged. (Damaged before purchase kinda excuse). If that doesn't work, I'll just buy new. Do the stickies have a write up for wheel bearings?
EDIT: I found the write up. Turned out it was me. I pressed it in with the hub facing... The lugs up. So when I went to press it in, the inner race of the axle side of the bearing just kinda fell out. I knew that wasnt supposed to happen. I dun learnt though.
