So I brought Brownie to the shop last week to get it aligned. They said they couldn't align it because it was too sloppy and said I needed new wheel bearings.
I bought new wheel bearings and races, but I'd rather not change them out if I don't have to. I'm assuming I can just remove the hub and rotor assembly, inspect the races and bearings, and if all looks good, grease, re-assemble, and then call it good.
Doubt I'd see much wear on the bearings themselves, but if the races appear to be worn, that would be my cue to replace bearings and races, right?
Anyone know off the top of their head how much to tighten the nut to set the correct preload on the bearings?
Thanks,
Scott
