Front Wheel Bearings

[KX5062]

I don't think bad ball joints match his described problems.

It did on my 08 GS. I thought it was a wheel bearing and bought a replacement. As I was preparing for the installation it was then that I noticed it was 2 bad ball joints, not just one, so it fooled me. One was the upper ball joint and the other was on the tie rod. I never did do the wheel bearing, but it looks like a nightmare requiring speciality tools.

I have the squeak in the front end at about 30-35 mph. Gets louder the faster I go. No wobble, just noise. 16,000 miles, but I'm also 100 miles from the closest dealer.....
