Back in Black
Im almost hesitant to ask this, but here goes.
I replaced my passenger side hub bearing assembly (front) and once it was all back together, before putting the rim back on, I spun the rotor just to ensure all looked well before wrapping it up and just happened to notice my front axle had about a 1/8 inch up and down travel as it turned. The drivers side was exactly the same. I looked at my buddy's tahoe and his seemed perfectly inline - we had actually replaced his a few months ago.
So is this a no-brainer?? Do I need to replace my front axels now? or is there a chance I'm overlooking something.
Im still getting a minor vibration when I exceed 70mph, but not near the vibration I was getting prior to changing out the hub assembly.
Thanks
