Worn Wheel Hub Bearing Symptoms
Driving conditions and installation practices can damage a worn hub. These symptoms often indicate wheel bearing damage.
Differential Brake Noise Problems
Your vehicle makes many sounds. Most are normal while the vehicle is in motion. But there are times when a noise coming from under the car can be a serious matter. Here are a few common noises that may come from the rear axle that need immediate attention.
New Wheel Bearing Technology
For an engineer, wheel bearing design and selection can be a balancing act between durability, cost and fuel economy. A large bearing might be great for potholes and heavy loads. But, there is only so much room in the hub and knuckle. Also, the larger bearing might have increased rolling resistance due to a larger sealing surface.
Spotting Bent Suspension Components
Normal driving usually won’t knock the wheels out of alignment or damage the suspension. However, normal driving also involves encounters with the unexpected, which often include potholes, curbs, railroad crossings (which are famous for being rough), parking lot speed bumps and other things that jar and stress the suspension.
