apexi Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 I wonder if it could be from the wheel bearing? Was there any weight on it when you loosened or tightened the axle nut? Or did you loosen and tighten everything with it jacked up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How did you replace the axle? Did you unbolt the strut from the hub, or did you disconnect the lower ball joint from the control arm, or did you remove the ball joint barrel from the hub? Also, how did you re-torque the axle nut? Lastly, was the hub surface corroded at all where the wheel bolts onto it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
