I noticed that while driving it sounded like my tire was rubbing the fender. Looked around and didn’t see anything. Decided to take off the wheels and check for sticky pads and still nothing. Took off the rotor and found it to be a bad wheel hub bearing. Got it fixed and running nicely again.

Here in Portlandia it dips into freezing overnight and 40's daytime. No moisture coming for a while. However, always cloudy with a chance of hippies though.

Good looking rig there. Is that a battery tender you got plugged in there? Or some kind of engine heater?
Thank you. It’s a battery tender. I usually leave it on it, especially with these high to low temperature changes.

At one point, living in PNW was a goal of mine. That changed over the last few years lol.

So it had a 4wd hub on it. Wonder if that had been replaced prior.

You just taught me something. I was wondering why they looked slightly different. I wonder why one would put an AWD hub on non-AWD car.

Some of the 4wd hubs are just fine not having the axle hold them together (which is apparently what you had), but others fall apart without it. It depends on the way they're manufactured.

I wonder what the other side looks like.
