1.) Chock the front wheels
2.) raise and support the rear of the vehicle
3.) rotate wheel and listen for slight "clicking" sound
4.) rotate back and forth quickly if no "click" present #3 and see if
the click now exists
5.) do same with other wheel
6.) while sitting facing wheel pull and push wheel and look for play
any play will be the wheel bearings.
7.) Lower vehicle slowly until 1" off of floor. Insert tire iron under
tire and pull iron up and listen for a "clunk" will determine if
a problem exists with suspension (bushings etc..)
