Bad ball bearings. Check to see the bearings and the casing does not need to be replaced.
Front wheel bearings in a car should be well greased but have never heard of them needing to be earthed.
No, it is a sealed unit.
Probably the front hub bearings. I've replaced mine four times. Sounds great after they're replaced, but eventually the hub bearings start whining again. I'm not sure what the root of the problem is, but I'm beginning to suspect it's a design defect.
The hub bearings in a 1998 Z71 can not be repacked. The bearings are part of the hub, and the hub assembly will have to be replaced.
The front wheel bearings and hub come as one piece. The bearings alone are not serviceable.
No, you need a press to remove and install the bearing.
Having mine done as we speak. $500
Check the wheel bearings and the front brakes for wear. These are the most common places that cause the roar.
The front wheel bearings, of a Pontiac vibe, can be replaced by first removing the front wheel. Next, remove the axle end cap. Remove the bearing and reverse the process to install the new bearing.
Always replace inner and outer wheel bearings on the same wheel at the same. You don't necessarily have to replace the bearings in both wheels at the same time, though it's not a bad idea, but always inner and outer on the same wheel at the same time.
