I searched through many threads but haven't been able to find the information I'm looking for (I do plan on purchasing a repair manual but I could use some help).
I have a wobble coming from my front right wheel. When jacked up, shaking 12&6 of the tire gives a small amount of play that seems to be coming from the wheel bearing. The balljoints and tie rod ends seem to be in good shape but I'm not completely ruling them out. The truck is very clean and the rubber all looks good.
Before I order parts from RockAuto (my parts stores are crazy expensive) I found the part numbers from a different thread (great) that I need Inner and Outer bearings AND races. Do i need wheel seals too? I can't find relevant videos on youtube besides a guy replacing his axle shafts.
If anybody can explain to me what parts are required to replace front wheel bearings and what order they go on/sit (ex. ring > bearing > seal, etc.) or a diagram I'd be very appreciative of any help or tips on what else to look for or test to find the wobble. Thanks again!
