Re: Wheel bearings (GTV6)



So am I correct in my assumption that there should be some minimal amount of play in the bearings, or should I try to eliminate it, as long as the washer is still relatively free to move around? I ask because the hub nuts are at the point where there's absolutely no play in the hub (but the washer can still move), but if I loosen it by just one slot (next available cotter pin position) I end up with what I would have called excessive play. I'm inclined to loosen them though because I've always been under the impression that there should be some play, but now I'm wondering if this assumption is invalid and I should just make sure the washer is free and the wheels can turn.

Thanks again,
Joe Elliott
