Wheel bearings
Looks like I'm going to need new rear wheel bearings. I did a thread search and most everyone complained about vibrations which I'm not getting. On a recent Hill Country trip I started noticing some rotational squeaking when I did uturns. I checked for play on the driver side wheel and there was some play but very little. I checked the passenger side and there was so much play I thought the wheel was lose. A good 1/8 in at least. I can't believe it's not vibrating.
I do have a couple of questions... Is this a ZR-1 specific part or do all C4's use the same part? Do I replace the entire hub? Is this something that can be done in the garage with a formidable amount of tools and some decent mechanical skills or is it a trip to the Vette Clinic?
