spin the wheel and torque the nut to 50ftlb and then back off castle nut to line up cotter pin hole
The front wheels on a fork lift are load bearing and the drive wheels.
Rear wheel drive the gear lube in the center also does the bearings. Front wheel drive the back wheels can either be greased as you would a front wheel bearing or they may be a sealed bearing that can't be greased.
This sounds like a wheel bearing issue. Raise the front wheels and turn them by hand. They should turn smoothly with no hint of a vibration unless the bearing is bad. Also check for play in the bearing by rocking the wheel in/out at the top/bottom.
The front wheels are the drive wheels on most lift trucks.
how do I get to the front bearing on a geo 4 wheel drive
The front wheels are the drive wheels and carry the weight of the payload.
Drive wheels can be identified by checking the vehicle's drivetrain layout. In front-wheel-drive vehicles, the front wheels are the drive wheels, while in rear-wheel-drive vehicles, the rear wheels are the drive wheels. All-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive vehicles may have all four wheels as drive wheels, but typically, the power distribution can be checked in the vehicle's manual or by observing the axle configuration. Additionally, inspecting for the presence of a differential and drive shafts can help determine which wheels are drive wheels.
In front wheel drive the traction comes from the front wheels while in rear wheel drive traction power comes from the rear wheels.
Most likely a wheel bearing or bearing/hub assembly. It would be easier to answer if we knew the year and make of the vehicle. Also, if it is a FWD you may have a defective CV shaft.
A front axle holds the front wheels on and on front-wheel drive vehicles transmits engine torque to the wheels. --Ken
Rear or front wheel drive id not determined by the wheels themselves. It depends on which wheels are connected to the driveshaft. If the driveshaft, from the engine, transfers power to the rear wheels to accelerate the car then it is rear wheel drive. Likewise to the front, though it is then front wheel drive.
Install the chains on the drive wheels.
