Another problem to solve......911 SC targa 1978.....we jacked up the rear of the car to remove the wheels to bleed the brakes after installing new stop light switches to master cylinder only to find the left rear wheel is wobbling quite a lot - just our luck. You don't notice this when driving along (no vibration or noise at all).
We removed the calliper and brake disc and found that the hub is wobbling with a lot of free play. The castellated nut is tight and there is no play in the drive stub shaft as such....it just appears to be the wheel hub itself (the bit the wheel studs are screwed into.) Not very knowledgeable in this area so apologies for terms used if not the correct ones!
We separated the hub from the stub shaft by removing the allen nuts and revealing the bearing (not sure if this was the right thing to do but bearing looks ok). This allowed us to move just the hub and it is definitely here that the problem resides, however can't get the hub out or away from the axle arm.
Our question is...Which bit is causing the problem? Is there a bearing that needs to be replaced in the axle arm, and is it a job for a pro with the right tools?
Thanks for any advice......Chris (Elaine's long suffering other half).
