So it sounds like a brake squeak, but everything has been changed, Calipers, Rotors, Pads, even new fluid. still getting the squeak noise, starts at about 10mph, and goes away under 15mph when slowing down. and its a constant sound of squeak , kinda like the noise your brakes make when they need to be changed. i just cant pin point the noise. its more prominent on the driver side, but can barely hear it on the passenger. Anyone else have this issue? been scratching my head at it for a long time. haha |

If you jack it up and spin the wheel can you hear it? |

So i got my new wheel bearings in, but i noticed there isn't a dust shield on them. Either one. Is that how they are supposed to be? Or am i supposed to reuse the old ones? Already repacked them with mobile 1 synthetic grease. Also how do you tell which side goes in what way? they look identical on both sides, actually they are... so that confuses me lol. |

Looks like there's supposed to be a seal on each side. http://www.genmotorinfo.com/FullImage.aspx?ccId=455849523&ppId=283668712&ppInfo=1995-2000+M%2808%29%2cDrive+Axle%2fFront%2cLP2%2c+1.0L%2c+3+Cyl+ENG+-+SU06025 |

that picture makes it look like they are separate from the bearing itself, like they are there but not part of the bearing assembly. hmmm head scratcher for sure. |

Bearings where shot. And everything was messed up. When we got the bearings out all you could hear is a scratching noise when you spun it. haha. Also, My 96' bearings do NOT come with seals on the bearings them selves. Bearing seals are seperate. Inner Seal part number - 710394 Outer Seal part number - 710175 Just so people know. |
