Another Brake Question
It's been a long time since I posted here mainly because things are running really well with the mare...
...but this past weekend I decided to head out to the river. I have been having some minor pulling to the right when I brake from time to time so before I left I pulled the wheel and caliper and checked the caliper slider pins. Because they were mostly dry I added brake grease to the boots and put them back together. Now when I brake the right side makes a low pitched groan as if something is loose. It only does it on the right side and only during moderate braking. If I brake harder it goes away. Just to be sure I took the wheel back off and made sure everything on the caliper was tight. With the truck lifted I spun the wheel and it sounds like the bearings are also dry.
Anyone else experience this problem and how did they reslove it?
Also, how do I get to the wheel bearings to lube them without disassembling the auto locking hubs? I've got 63500 miles on her and she's only 1.5 years old... Probably time anyhow.
