I too am glad it wasnt worse.
What brand of bearing did you replace it with?
I work at Timken Research and they are constantly testing GM Wheel bearing assemblies, I will ask the techs if/what they are finding is causing this problem and maybe how we can prevent it.
Both my rags got 170K on them. Anyway to check ? The ABS unit is unplugged in my 95 but it was due to bad ABS unit.
Hey Tim thanks for the heads up. I am about to do new rotors so am considering bearings whilst I am in there. Is it possible to replace just the bearing or did you have to replace the bearing and hub assembly as a whole?
cheers

The bolts that hold the hub on are lock-tited. Easy acess on 6 lug to heat. On 8 lug you have to break the rotor to get acess to heat because the rotor mounts on wheel studs behind hub face. Hub must be removed to change rotor.
How do you check ABS codes?
Thank you Cheyenne and the IFS! Thank God I don't have to worry about that.

That thought did occur to me when I saw that wheel tucked into the fender well, was scary enough at 25 mph, I had some serious retrospections of failure at hiway speed, I have had many a close call, Lord has always managed to pull me through it, I don't know what HIS plan for me here is, but HE ain't ready for me up there yet.
