Wheel Bearings?

97ranger4x4 · Mar 31, 2008

So I am going to go check my front brakes right now. I have noticed that after I have done a lot of stop and go driving, i can feel/hear a shudder. This is a little different than having warped rotors which I have and need to be replaced. not sure how my bearings would go bad, I havent gone through any water or anything and they were replaced a few years ago when they got frozen to the spindle cause I tightened it up to tight. Well I guess if anyone has any thoughts on this that would be great.

So, you have a shudder on braking only when the brakes are hot? Mic the rotors. They might be getting a little thin.

If they are close to minimum, replace the pads and rotors (do NOT resurface the rotors -- replace them).

And it is easier to replace the wheel bearings when replacing rotors than to try to reuse the old ones.

Alright Ill just replace the pad, rotors and check the bearings.
