GC8 front wheel bearings
Hey all,
I had fitted 2 front wheel bearings
One side is fine, solid hub in the bearing, good movement, lovely.
The other side though, the inner race has some in and out movement, i can pull and push the hub in and out a couple of mm, if you look on the inside of the hub you can see the inner race move back n forth ( in and out )
Once the driveshaft is installed tho the movement stops.
Has the bearing been damaged when installed ?
Its the newer style, solid one piece bearing that was pressed in
cheers

I never fitted them my mate did at his work ( done loads he said lol )
the hub measures the same distance from the knuckle if I compare points on the other side to measure
it’s just the inner race the hub pushes into moves back n forth a little bit
ive mock tightened a driveshaft on the bench in the garage and when tightened no movement but if I remove driveshaft movement Is still there ( although I’ve not torqued the hub but just loosely tightened it
weird and I’m just wary of fitting the whole thing to car if it indeed faulty
