Wheel Bearing
*another problem
ok so ive been hearing this odd sound when i drive, i thought it was just the tires but its apprantly its the front right wheel bearing, (i had it diagnosed) just wondering if its a job i could do by myself or should i go ahead and pay the shop 350$ for parts and labor?

RE: Wheel Bearing
i must say i had no idea the bearing had to be pressed in. And they are expensive as well. I had to repack the bearings on my bird but it took 10$ for grease and few tools. I still vote that you should still do most of the work and go get the bearing presses in. And i agree, most things i know about stealth's i got from "thestealth" responces. Going from under the hood of a bird to a stealth is like a whole another world, and twise more complicated as well.

RE: Wheel Bearing
Yep, they're sealed bearings. If you buy one from the dealer, it's alot more expensive and you buy the whole steering knuckle/hub, but it can be swapped without having to press in the bearing.
A lot of front wheel drive cars have rear bearings that can be repacked with grease...not so on these cars as even the rears are sealed units although they can be replaced pretty easily with no need for a press.
