Today I heard an oscillating high-pitched whine while driving. It varied with speed. I'm thinking rear wheel bearings - any thoughts?
If that's probably it, I'll pull them apart tomorrow and repack them. Any tips or tricks for that project? -Rusty (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smoke.gif) |

My gear oil was pretty low. Sometimes the simplest (and cheapest) solutions are the right ones. I changed both the gear oil and the engine oil while I was under there.
Thanks, Curt! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smilie_pokal.gif) Hey Gint... I'll save you the breath - you told me so. We should have put the car up on the lift while we had the chance. I haven't driven it yet... I'm too dirty to put my butt into the nice new upholstery. After a shower and some lunch, I'll go back out! -Rusty (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/smoke.gif) |
