Has anyone ever had experience with a hub being out of round? I finally isolated the problem that is causing a bumpy ride.... The problem is I cant SEE anything wrong.
With the front drivers side wheel off the ground I can spin the tire and actually see the problem. Using a fixed point on the inner fender well I can watch as the tire rises and falls as it spins. I swapped wheels from every corner of the truck and they all spin true on the opposite side. However, ALL 4 wheels/tires exhibit the same behavior while mounted on the drivers side front.
The bearings definitely need servicing and they will receive it soon. Im really scratching my head though trying to figure out what would cause this. Would it be possible that the lug studs are drilled off center? Are these wheel hubs designed in such a way that bad bearings could allow for something like this and I am just missing it?
I really look forward to hearing peoples thoughts opinions on this because I am totally confused....
