I've had a nasty dry bearing noise coming from the front of my GU ute & today it got worse. It's louder & can be felt through the steering wheel. It started out almost sounding like a rock was floating around where the adjustment is for the hand brake in front of the tailshaft with a ting ting now & then but now it's more of a grind & seems to be coming from the front
I pulled off the front rotor to check the wheel bearings but not much visually wrong with them.
I noticed that if I grab the wheel left & right (9 o'clock & 3 o'clock), there's play but if I grab it top & bottom (6 & 12 o'clock) there's nil play.
Any ideas on what this may be? I'm hoping just a wheel bearing or could it be something worse???
Need to get it fixed before the weekend as I start a new job Monday & need the car!!!
Cheers
Joe

Yeah done that but can't really hear much. I'm thinking a broken cv could be possible as there's something floating around in the diff making a nasty sound . It's down @ the mechanics atm so hopefully it can be fixed soon.....
