... but on the way out of Halifax, the Jeep took a sudden jerk to one side. I figgured my caliper seized, as I just changed the pads this week. I cautiously drove over to CVO , and started tearing into it. Come to find out it was the wheel bearing that seized up. No prob; just change them right? Hell no! Hub assembly wouldn't come off. After much prying, hammering and eventually cutting the rotor off everything was appart .... well not the bearings. Lots more pounding, pressing and eventually cutting and the bearings were free. Great, I thought... now just re-assembly.... WRONG! One bearing race must have spun in the hub, wallowing it out to the point we can't just replace it. Everything was closed by then... so here I sit at home... waiting for stores/ dealerships to open in the morning. Sigh. Fingers crossed I can even find one. Huge thanks to the boys at CVO, and Itsakeeper (Motion)
