bezee Posted July 6, 2004 Posted July 6, 2004 When changing my brakes last week i noticed when i tightened the lugs all the way and jscked the car back up i noticed about 1maybe 2mm of play when i shook the wheel to make sure it was tight. I checked the passenger side for play but there was none. I looked with a friend to see if i could see where the play was coming from but everything looked tight even while he shook the wheel. What could be causing this? and where should i try lookin next?
jzz30 Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 after 10 years rubber parts begin to deteriorate so try lookig at your arm bushings
bezee Posted July 7, 2004 Author Posted July 7, 2004 i checked the arm bushings and they were good, im thinking maybe wheel bearing or cv boot?
johnny3 Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 The axle bearing is starting to fail if you can see no other looseness anywhere. It will start making a roaring/grinding noise as it get worse, also it may start to drag on the brake disc, turn your radio down once in a while & listen so you can get it changed when it gets worse. Any decent shop can replace it, doesen't have to be a Lexus dealer.
jzz30 Posted July 7, 2004 Posted July 7, 2004 oh yea i for got which side rear bearing it was but one of them go out under stress and time. i read this about the supra and i am assuming that its the same with the sc. and its worse if you wear S tires
