exploded wheel bearing
« on: May 03, 2007, 08:05:47 PM »
   I was driving down Hiway 68 at 55 mph today when my front passenger side wheel bearing let go.I almost wrecked and Ishit myself.The inner race was froze to axel,and the outer  race was very stuck in hub.It  took mucho work and time to free the damn thing up,and pick out bearings and parts for 2 hours before I could even remove the hub assembly.It totaly spanked my rotor and my caliper as well,but luckily my hub and axel were unharmed.
   No warning at all,and no noise or vibration or anything in the few days I have owned it.Bearing was well packed,and entire assembly from lockout to rear seal was clean,well greased,and in good repair.
  Any ideas on why,or probably just bad bearing?
