    youve just been luck so far i guess its really not good for the bearing ,the axle torque is 210 ft/lbs . as far as the vibration if you have the axle in the other side it could be causing wierd effects/noises as you drive/turn just a thought.

      Ok thanks for the torque spec. I have both front axles in and whenever I turn left I get a humming and slight vibration. Could the bearing cause this even though the wheel doesn't wiggle?

        might have a bad RF wheel bearing (doesnt have to be loose to be bad), when you turn left the load shifts putting extra side load on RF wheel brg and that might be the noise/humming ,could also be a rear bearing so be sure to check them all
