Wheel Bearings
How do you tell if a wheel bearing is bad? I have a noise when I'm driving my car that I first thought was a wheel bearing. It sounds like my truck rollin down the highway with the Mud Terrians...kinda loud. I took it into the shop and jacked it up but there was no play in any of the wheels. There are no warning lights on (I don't have trac controll so that one wouldn't come on) so I thought it might just be the tires. ( the original BFGs) but the sound stays constant with the speed even over different terrians like gravel to pavement, tar/chip to asphalt...it doesn't change which leads me back to thinking its wheel bearings. Is there any other way of checking them other than replacing them all and hoping that was the problem?
