I have my car on 4 jackstands. I replaced everything in the rear:
sway bars/links
rear bearings
springs/shocks
new rotors/pads
I put everything back together and put a wheel on the rear of the car and when i turned the car on (car is still on jack stands), and kept the car in 5th gear, the wheel had a slight wobble as i let it spin freely... I can actuallyfeel it at around 60-70mph on my speedo, but noticed the wobbling immediately by inspection... After removing the wheel, I took a look at the rotors and they are also wobbling..
The rotors are NOT loose. The retaining nut is on very securely and I can't get any shimmy on the rotor by hand.
Could it be that I may have bent the hubs as I took the rear bearings out?
I didnt' hit them that hard...
How easy is it to actually bend the hubs (the part where the wheel lug bolt threads are)
Or should I just put the car down, and drive it and it will eventually break into itself over time....considering that everything is brand new...
