Noise while turning

Sep 13, 2003 2 Replies

I recently replaced the right-front hub-bearing assembly on my 4x4



1998 Jimmy. It now makes a constant noise while I'm turning right. Straight is ok, left is ok, but even a slight right turn of the steering wheel makes a humming noise while driving at speeds in excess of approx. 30 mph. Anyone have any clue what is wrong? Does it have anything to do with the hub replacement?

FYI, I replaced the hub because it would occasionally make a clunking noise while turning corners usually at lower speeds. This symptom is different than what I am currently hearing.

Sounds like your 'left' front wheel bearing and hub assembly is noisy.

My best guess would be that something is wrong with that new hub assembly. Check the bearing for correct tightness.
