| I only average 800 miles on bearings. I would replace them before you oval out hubs and cost more money in repairs. Just my .02 | |

| To check wheel bearings put your hands at 6:00 and 12:00 and try to move the wheel. Bushings are checked with your hands at 9:00 and 3:00. If you have play from side to side it is probably the bearing carrier bushings or maybe the inner bushings. | |
