what are the signs of wear.
Sorry I posted before finishing. I have a vibration which I think is coming from the front somewhere. I would liken the vibration to like a worn UJ joint on the prop shaft, but its not that. I have a new front propshaft. I checked the front wheel bearings by jacking it up and rocking the wheel. no signs of wear there. The vibration comes in around 50 mph and once I get up to 70 either I can't hear it or its not so bad. The wheels were balanced but I'm not sure if they did a good job as there machine couldn't really hand large wheels, I don't think its a wheel balancing problem, its not that sort of vibration. Its driving me nuts. any suggestions where I should look. I was wandering if a worn CV joint might be the cause. There is no knocking when I pull away or steer left or right.
