rear wheel bearing???-squeeky noise

Post by Johnmck »

Hi thinking of replacing rear wheel bearing- makes a sqeeky noise, not a rumbling, and doesn't do it all the time.
two questions- is this the bearing or something else?
do i need to do both sides at same time?
looks complicated in haynes manual so might have to be a garage job

Had an annoying rythmic squeking on one side caused by backplate fouling on brake drum. Gentle shove back in shape, problem solved!!
