Originally posted by Viss1: Well, turns out my old KDW's were so loud they were DROWNING OUT a bad wheel bearing! I had become so used to the tire noise I didn't realize how loud it had become until I got my new Dunlops yesterday. The bad bearing was painfully obvious at that point
My bad rear bearings sound like I am driving on tractor tires!!!!
OUCH! Man, I would suggest going over to O'relly's and getting the HUB assemply ($45 per side) and getting those puppies changed! All it takes is one NUT. After removing and getting the old one (in your case I am assuming the pieces) out, simply install the new one and torque the CENTER NUT at 100 Lbs and you're set!
