Question
I have a 2000 chevy blazer S-10 4.3L 2WD. when its on the road, the two front tires shake really bad, at first i thought it was the rotors warped or something like that, but put it on the lift and the tires wiggle like crazy.
I took it to the mechanic and told me it was the rotor bearings and gave me a estimate for $1,150 for the job.
it thought it was a little bit to much. is it hard to replace them if i buy the parts myself,
and would you happen to know which web site have a diagram.


Answer
Hi Armando.... that truck will have hubs you will need to remove the caliper assemblies the axel nut, then the bolts behind the hub...pull hub off... may need to tap it outward off the axel shaft...disconnect the ABS plug then remove. reinstall is the reverse...hope this helps
