UPDATE2; still NEED ADVICE on Intermediate bearing... Posted by TonyJ [Email] (#407) [Profile/Gallery] (more from TonyJ) on Mon, 12 Oct 2009 18:41:15 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
(see previous post UPDATE; still NEED ADVICE on Intermediate bearing...). Before I began, ran the car jacked up without front wheels just to totally eliminate tire noise. The noise was still there, mainly from the right side. I replaced the intermediate shaft bearing, a weekend project that basically spanned 2 college football games on Saturday (got the bearing out, using my new 20 Ton hydraulic shop press) and 2+ pro games on Sunday. I also replaced the tensioner, which had to come out anyhow, and 2 idlers (see separate posts). The noise is quieter, but still there and now varies with lateral load (see separate post). A new wheel bearing and axle nut are on the way.
