Thank you for the wheel bearing page! - Sandals - 04-07-2019
I am 15 days into changing the wheel bearings on a 2000 Chevy Tracker and I really want to thank whoever specifically wrote the "trackick wheel bearing page for all years."
My repair manual was totally wrong..the parts counter is totally wrong. After reading your page I finally told them I was in a 2000 Suzuki Grand Vitara to order the right part. Your info is still the only correct info I have seen. I would kiss you on the lips if you were here! Thank you.

yes , FW bearings are a PISTOL.
you are welcome and I made that page, long ago....12 year ago,
the hardest part is knowing when GM made the change (always after suzuki did it) tricky that.
and the parts about CRUSH. The bearing does crush down and then has the magic .002" clearance.
all the best to you, and hearty hand shake to you and anyone that does this. (repair)
cheers and good day.
PS:
grease them with mobile 1 SYN , axle grease, some brands went bad, with new EPA laws on grease the formula good was lost. (later it turns to snot and runs out.)
like this.

this does last and last, by my experience, on the road.
