Agreed. When my left side rear bearing went started making noise, I had it replaced. Then the right one went out about two weeks later.Originally Posted by Mad Cow
You should replace both though, last time I replaced 1 bearing the other one started making noise a week after.
Best to do both at the same time.
Its definately left side, had to get a new cv axle for that side also had some slack in it. I guess with 107k you expect some of the original parts to start going getting ready to service front to back.

For future reference, the bearings are a press fit. Unless you got a bearing press, dont do it. Just bring the hub into a service station and 10 minutes later you're done. (Unless frozen of course...mine took a half hour haha)
+1 for just doing both..hell maybe even all 4. In 2 months, Ive had to do 2 rears and I have a front to do....lol

Neat trick my friend showed me when we replaced mine, was to put the new bearing in the freezer for about 20 minutes. Slid into the hub just like butter Originally Posted by bmoore98A4
