Sounds Like Bearing!
 
I recently put in some front bearings I bought when I did my rear bearings a few months ago. When starting, I noticed a torn outer boot on the driver side axle (grease everywhere!). Soooo, I replaced both front axles (reman, Napa, $60), installed bearings (I had been hearing whining bearing type noise for some time), rebuilt calipers (seals, booties) and installed high-tech pads (EBC Green Stuff Kevlar front, Akebono ceramic rear).

The whining bearing type noise is still present!

Tell me I don't have a bad rear or front bearing so soon! I took all care not to damage hubs or bearings during removal/installation (used HubTamer).

Is there another part that might be causing such a sound? LIKE A DRIVESHAFT U-JOINT, OR A DIFFERENTIAL NOISE?

Also, I've balanced my front tires twice (NASCAR machine) and still get intermittent steering wheel shimmy? RACK AND PINION? MOTOR MOUNTS?

HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLP! THANKS! :confused: :confused: :D :D

It could be tire noise. Switch the front and rear?
