Does anyone have a procedure to grease the wheel bearings? Does it involve removing the caliper, or is there a way to work around having to do that?
Thanks, ~Eric |

Take everything apart and clean all the old grease out. Install with new grease ( I like that red stuff I found) and seals. How old are the bearings? I just as soon replace them if I don't know how old they are since they are cheap.
Seems like most 914's front wheel bearings are set too loose or worn out. They shouldn't go clunk when you push/pull on the tire. Geoff (IMG:style_emoticons/default/calvin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) |
