thanks most likely that is the only way to fix them. can't really tell which bearing is making the noise. may wind up takeing each one of and spinning it to see if it feels bad.

the last time i checked they where good. that was last fall but every year i check them and they have been good. not saying now they are they could have went bad since last fall but the noise has been there for a year or so and sounds like it is getting a bit worse. at first i thought it was the tires going bad, new tires last fall and noise is still there.

I ask because the rear calipers on mine stuck and ate the inner disc surfaces.

thanks all question help spur ideas. my car has rear drum brakes. they to could cause issues like that with a warped drum. i had rear drums warp before and i knew it because the brake peddle told me i had warped drums it pulsed. i will just have to remove the bearing assembly's and check them to see. maybe i can rock the tires top and bottom and that may tell me. thanks
