OFF TOPIC VI
Haven't had this happen to me......yet.
I did have a strange noise a few years back...but it ended up being the Rear Brakes......a high pitched sound that was more noticeable when backing up....

The wheel bearings I've heard had a cyclical sound to them. Deeper in tone than a simple brake rub.
It's not as high pitched as a brake sqeaking. And it's not constant. It has a rhythm to it. You can hear it up to about 30 or 35 and it's only noticeable when going straight or turning right and putting more weight on the driver wheel.

You can still beat the hell out of the wheel bearings as they go. I know a few people that AutoX'd on them.

mailed out my wheel funds today 


It sucks sending a bunch of money to someone over the internet that you pretty much just have to have faith that they'll mail your parts you paid for doesn't it? I always get nervous. I've never even sent a lot of money either, just a little.

Yep, this is a pretty big deal, we talked this morning so everything seems to be progressing fine. I'm just extremely anxious because, yeah, we're talking about some serious $$$ for me anyways... All of our PM's have been great though so I just got to sweat it out.

"Hay mane, yeah buddy Ima get me them thar wheels - jest hold tight I gotta rustle me up some more money - mane, them wheels is killer-bad mane, they killer." YeeeW!!! Schit-far!
