Replaced my wheel bearing tonight

So tonight me and a mate replace the wheel bearing on my 96 FD.

Had a problem when turning left only you would get a vibration in rear drivers side.

So the new wheel bearing made it half as bad but its still not great, what would you try next??

Cheers,
Dan

REAR left? Just wanted to clarify that it was the rear that was the culprit. Usually its the front that will have symptoms if you had to replace the wheel bearing since there is load on it.

I assume yours is RHD, so itll be your right rear. Id check the bushings, your trailing arm. Go over all the bolts just incase you missed one. Check your upper strut mounts. Make sure you tightened your axle bolt.

oh and you might be toe'd out. whats your alignment
