Hey guys,
Once again Im still getting a terrible vibration when hitting 50-68 mph, when i hit a bump or when I turn my truck left or right left seems to make it terrible. Funny thing is somtimes it doesnt vibirate at all until i turn. So far i have had the ball joints checked, tie rod ends checked, tires rotated(6 times, 6 different places) and brakes turned back. So i took it to a friend and he jacked the control arm up and started pulling on the tire. He saw no problems but then he spun the tire a bit and found what he calls " a flat spot" where the wheel gives a whole lot. He told me i need bearings on that side replaced, turns out i gota buy a hub $130. Thats alot for a poor college student like myself so do theses symptoms match? We also noticed grease coming out of the nut under the center cap on the drivers side ( so much for the seal). Theres no humming noises coming from the bearings just the d**ned vibration.
Please let me know what you think..
