Wheel bearing issue?
Yet another question...
when I grab either of the front wheels and push/pull on them, there is a lot of play. Are the bearings adjustable, or does this signal (as I'm assuming) replacement? Are there other parts of the front end as well just in case? Are there big risks to driving it in this condition? Have I filled my quota of questions for the year?

If your front wheels are a little loose, it's probably not much to worry about but, the bearings may be excessively warn or perhaps misadjusted a little. If I were you I would repack or replace the bearings in accordance with Para. 2, Page 100, of the Haynes manual. If you don't have the Haynes, you sure as heck ought to get one.
Good luck at it, Phil |
