Still trying to track down my grinding then pop noise.....
This only happens on occasion....
So, I it happened again today... this is on a 90, 4wd, 241.
I decided to take the thing apart when I got home, mostly to check the brakes, u-joints, the basic standard stuff.
I pulled the hub, and checked everything, and it all seems fine. The wheel bearing is a bit rough, with a little play, but not a grinding noise or excessive play. I assume I can't put a huge load in it with my hand.
This thing has 284k on it, so I figured I just go buy a hub, but they are $100-150, so I thought before I do, I would check with all.....
Your thought, could this be the problem?
Look forward to hearing from you folks, any one had a bearing/hub go bad?
Thanks
Bob
