    Wheel bearing Woes

    So i replaced my passenger wheel bearing as it was shot, had it pressed in at a shop all was safe and sound this was three weeks ago. then tonite im driving and the same sound of it going starts happening so now i gotta replace it agian.

    why do they keep wearing out i had it tripled checked the bearing was all assembled perfect.

    Someone said i had a warped axle and it was causing it to damage prematurely.

    Any info appreciated

    It could be halfshaft joint related, as it fits into the middle of hub. But usually wide wheels + excessive camber can wear wheel bearings out earlier.

    Check your front end too. Ball joints, tie rod ends, bushings, ect. Maybe the bearing on the other side is shot? Maybe the wheel bearing was misdiagnosed in the first place?
