17639, am i missing something?
Posted by 95_ESi_Person, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
second time i've installed a wheel bearing on my car... i just did it... torqued the hub/bearing assembly to 65 ft/lbs and just got back from test drive and wheel is loose again!!!!
what gives? am i forgetting to do something? this is the 2nd bearing that has done this to me and the guy won't warranty any more bearings.
please help!!!! (no grinding, just loose)

nevermind i got it... when i had the trans done the shop fucked up my axles and stripped that nut thing at the end... i put a new one on (i had to add a washer the threads were messed up) and tightened the hell out of it... and then some.
now i'm all good, for now... i'm thinking i'm gonna need a new axle in the future though.
wheel shake gone (guess i didn't need the new hub/bearing afterall)
