I have some play in my wheels.
It's bearings.
Now, I removed them, scraped out 55 year old grease, cleaned and re-packed....but.
The factory manual talks about a maximum of .005" end play in the hubs.
It also says to tighten the nut until the bearings feel rough, back to the first hole and install a new split pin (that's close to what it says).
Many many moons ago I had a wheel bearing fry that was a bit too tight, and the last thing I need is for that to happen on the Jag.
Any body had experience with tighting more than one finger in the end of a 12" crescent?
