Hi all...
How much free play is acceptable when checking a wheel bearing? None at all, or is a little ok? I have a 1988 Nissan Bluebird 1.6LX that has started to make a worn bearing type noise when turning left, and sure enough when jacked up there's play in the offside-rear wheel. However, there's also play in the nearside-rear wheel, but not as much as in the offside-rear. It doesn't make any noises when turning right, so is the nearside bearing ok, or perhaps on the way out and worth replacing too?
TIA...Nick.
