I have a -93 explorer, 50Kmiles, I am quite shure I have a play in my right front wheel bearing (when i remove the wheel i can feel the play easily). I also hear bumps when i drive. Do i have to replace the wheel bearings or can i just tighten some bults or so to fix the problem.
 






How are your ball joints?You can repack the bearings:D
 






I think the ball joints are ok. When I remove the wheel and grab the break plate and wiggle it, i see that its wiggling around the wheel bearing.

Where can I fínd out how to repack wheel bearings?
