I have no idea how long the bearing was bad since I bought it like that.

Never had any issues with it... well, when I was driving.

Changing them out was a MAJOR PITA! The "on the car" system left my brother with tiny fragments of the bearing in his arms!

Bench press & long sleeve shirt FTW here!

Also might wanna change out both while you're at it. The passenger side might be on it's way out also.




I read Ray's How-to and it didnt seem like it would be to difficult, probably half a days work.

Then ill wrap it up and send it to Stazi.

It would be nice to do Tom's big brake Focus Braket mod at the same time.
