I think my Wheel Bearing/s are SHOT! .. I looked around on the web for some information, which was very helpful - I just wanted to see if anyone has experienced this or could shed some light on it, thanks!!

 

Its easy to verify, just jack the car up and grab the whole wheel and try to move it around. It shouldn't. If it has play and moves, its bad.

They are pressed bearings, and usually require a hydraulic press, but there are tools thats will let you do it on the car. With a press you have to remove the steering knuckle and press the hub out, then press the out bearing out and the new one in.

It requires some work, if you not to familiar with cars I would leave it to professionals, it takes a while sometimes. But the pros have the right tools.

 

front or rear?


Is it 2000 yet?

Why yes it is!

Sorry its been a while from this post, but everything is fixed and I wanted to add what the actual problems were:

First off, I needed 2 new SWAY BAR LINKS, hmmm still not sure but ohh well.

Second, 2 NEW (ouch 205.00 ech, dealer part) CV Joints!!!

Third, 2 NEW Lower wheel bearings.

Now the guy who did all the work, a good friend and trusted import turner said is was b.c the car was too low and this caused wear and tear on all the parts. I got a Ground Control kit in there, professionally installed. hmmmm anyways I raise her ever since I got all the work done, no problems. BTW, she was 1.7" drop in the front and 1.6" in the rear.

Anythoughts,,, and no extended warranty, and even if I did, then Honda would cry the aftermarket song!!
