Unit bearings
« on: June 08, 2014, 08:10:07 PM »
When I jack up the front axle. Grab the wheel at the 12 and 6 or
the 9 and 3 positions and try and move it. The unit bearing has
a "wee bit of play" ( 1/16 of and inch ).
Should have none, or is this acceptable? No noise when driving.

No play in the ball joints. All in the unit bearing
