Grandpa's 1995 C1500 Reborn

Your rear noise could be from the sound bouncing around and it actually being in the front. Crazy acoustics...

Jack it up (securely) put it in drive and get down there with a stethoscope.

Front bearings are cheap. If one is bad then replace all of them. You'd need 2 inner and 2 outer and 2 seals. If that is your problem lmk and I'll explain to you exactly how to replace them!

Actually a good way to diagnose a front wheel bearing is when your driving, slowly swerve back and forth. If the noise changes or goes away when the load is off that wheel then it's the bearing.

You need --

- 2 inner bearings
- 2 outer bearings
- 2 seals

You won't need races unless they look damaged then change them. You will also have to pack these bearings with grease.


That is if this is your problem. Lol

Cleans up good for an 18 year old truck if I do say so myself. I'll get the exhaust vids up later.
