Re: Rear wheel bearing job.... Done



The guys at Dyno day did that & found a bent rim and a loose rear wheel 
bearing. We changed the rim to the spare and the sound didn't leave.
I chnged the bearing yesterday and ..... no luck...

>>THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Never be afraid to try something new.
Remember that amateurs built the ark. . . . .
Professionals built the Titanic.
