carlexes330 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 When I am going into a right hand bend my right rear wheel makes a noise like a dry wheel bearing doesn't happen when turning into a left hand bend . I have checked the wheels brakes bearings and cannot find any fault and its not the tires rubbing on the wheelarches ...help before I can only turn into left hand bends!!!!!

fpt2001 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Odd that it only happens turning one direction. May still be the bearing since it is impossible to put the same stress on it unless it is under load. I replaced an entire bearing assembly for less that $75.

eodguy2 Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 I would put heavy bet on the bearing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fergi Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 yes as other two replys,99% that it is your wheel bearing,as you turn into the corner the wheel bearing loads up ,check to make sure the noise is coming from the side you think,sometimes the noise seems to come from a certain side but may infact be the other.also try going around the corner and as the noise starts slightly depress the hand brake, it could also be the rear hand brake drum . fergi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carlexes330 Posted June 26, 2011 Author Share Posted June 26, 2011 I'll tear it all apart tomorrow and see what I can seee thanks for the info Total shock and horror I had a jammed on rear caliper on the left side which caused the brake pad to wear down and start scoring the brake disc so after a clean up of the caliper and replaced the rear set of brake pads and one new brake disc later all is back up and running so now all is cool and while I was there i checked the wheel bearings and all is fine thanks for the info guys (Forgot about replying to this post replacement was done that same day) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
