Hi all...I have a 2 part question that hopefully someone can help me with.
1. It seems I can't tighten the front wheel bearings quite enough to get to the "tightness" that I want. The adjuster doesn't want to turn in any more and I don't want to force it. Is this an indication of not enough grease in the bearings? 2. I have the front wheels off the car. When I spin the hub and rotor back and forth I get a slight knock when the rotor starts and stops. I can really feel it in the strut also. Is this normal? Am I explaining this properly? It is not wheel bearing slop. Thanks, Mike |
