Taco wheel bearings
Hey guys,new member Novice offroader. Got a 97 Taco 4x4 and recently had quite a bit of vibration between go and 30-45mph and my hubs felt hot after about an hour of driving. Alot of folks told me my wheel bearings were shot, so I went to a local 4x4 shop for a bearing replacement. When I went back to pick it up I was told that my truck had completely sealed bearing units and that they were fine. I was told all I needed was a tire rotation(vibration did stop) and that hot hubs are normal. I kinda feel I'm gettin smoke blowed up my tail, I've looked at umpteen web sites and they all talk about repacking the bearings and I've yet heard of a bearing thats packed,sealed and maintenence free. Thanks in advance for any advice.
