NEW rear wheel bearing Wobbly.... help plz
I had to replace my RR bearing. It went so smoothly i couldn't believe it. Within 1hr i had it out. Now i have the new one in and my hub wobbles, like the middle from inside the outer race. Am i missing something? Will it tighten up when i bolt up the axle or what?
I used super gynormous C-clamp and an Autozone wheel bearing install kit (disks that push on the outer bearing) to install it. I froze it beforehand in my house freezer to shrink it. Greased it, slid right in barely popping 2-3 times along the way.
New Clip. Used the same C-clamp to push the hub in, now it wobbles if i shake it. I'm out of words. I also took the brand new uninstalled one out of the freezer, intended for the driver's side, installed the other hub (by hand only a few mm in) on it and it also wobbles.
Both the outer race and inner race fit tight... this c-clamp has been my version of a hydraulic press for many years... plus it cost like $100.
What am i missing guys??
