Just a quick one. Currently replaceing the left rear axle seal. With no movement in the wheel bearing with everything complete and wheel on, and movement in the wheel bearing once the axle is out, should the rear bearing be replaced?
cheers
suzuki manual dosent mention how to tell if the rear wheel bearing should be replaced.

mine always have a bit of play when not in the car... easier option go harder and snap your axel, and buy a second hand 1 with a good bearing..
