About David Scott
Expertise
Questions regarding the advisability of different kinds of modifications to Samurai/Sidekick/Tracker or various kinds of off-road usage. I will not attempt to do more than provide links for questions about other Suzukis such as Vitara, Grand Vitara, etc. I may or may not give generalized advice for newer models, but have no experience regarding newer models, and will not attempt to give more than the most generalized answers for questions regarding vehicles later than '93 manufacture. I will however, if possible, provide a link that will help you contact a professional in your region.
Experience
I've been a professional mechanic for over thirty five years, live in the center of the Rocky Mountains, and have been active in exploring the old mining/4wd roads for decades. I've specific experience with Samurai modification, because that's my personal vehicle.
Education/Credentials
Thirty five years of advanced, intensive classes for experienced professionals only. Manufacturer seminars and training classes averaging four to six weeks per year. I'm now a professional heavy duty fleet mechanic, and no longer deal with issues such as MIL (check engine) lights

You are here: Experts > Autos > Trucks > Suzuki > clutch, frontwheel hub
Expert: David Scott
Date: 8/13/2008
Subject: clutch, frontwheel hub
Question
a couple of questions. I have a 1988.5 samurai 5 speed. I will be replacing the clutch pretty soon, will i need any specific tools other than rachet set, wrenches ? and also i will be needing to pack grease in my front hubs for they are sounding dry, what does that entail? Last but not least my right front tire is leaning in slightly at the top. How do i resolve it?
Answer
Nothing else for the clutch. It's probable that the leaning in at the top is loose wheel bearings. You'll probably want to replace them, which will require bearings, lock plates, and a 2" socket for the bearing adjustment. Go to izook.com. Hawk Suzuki will have the bearings, and I believe trail tough has a 2" socket in their tool section.
