Does anyone has any info on this?
I guest iam getting some cash preaty soon. and i will get some tires, wheel alignment. and Interior is almost done..
Now i was thinking of making the SUV stand out little more, i could see my SUV with Wide Wheels, it looks Great.
Plus i have a problem.. the 295/40/ 24 is Rubbing the wall, i think a spacer will fix this... but may cost other problem.
the guy above. mention something about bearings. how much is it to repair bearing and is it hard?
The rear axle isn't so much a deal because of the solid axle shaft that spreads the load, but the front I would never do because the bearings can be a PITA and cost $250 a pop. You'd need to remove the brake caliper, rotor, abs line, and remove three grade-8 bolts that will likely strip off and require the use of a torch to fully remove. Having a bearing fail would cause your wheel assembly to vault out of the wheel well, taking the abs line, brake line, etc. with it, with disastrous concequences.
Or have a shop replace them for around $700.
$250 for bearings? I just replaced my bearings, inners and outers with races for a heck of a lot less than $250. It is a very simple job.
I agree with what triniguy said.
