i think the rear hub went bad on my beast, or is there a wheel bearing compressed into the hub? like it is on the front? im just trying to figure out , if i should replace the whole thing or just a part of it. if you know what im saying cuz i dont really understand myself now at this point :). and what would cause vibrations when im about to stop, i just replaced the lca's , struts and springs, thanks
 
the rear wheel bearing is like the fronts on your wifes car. They bolt in
 
thanks J. who can tell me bill jenkin's phone #, and would i need a hub puller? or a hammer is just fine ;/. OR maybe it is not the hub. it sounds like a piece of plastic that was put inbetween spokes on my bike when i was a kid, the faster car goes the faster noise goes away, it is very noticable when i'm about to stop, like something was rubbing against something, it sounds a litle diffrent than a bad wheel bearing. any sugestions?
