Ran out for test run after installing brakes and had noise - thought the shields were rubbing (they were even though I had checked them when installing the new thicker discs think they bent them up w/ last brake job for prev. owner)... but there was slight wear on outside edge from caliper mount, so
Pulled the wheel off and the disc was wobbly - removed the disc and found that the wheel nut wasn't all the way down - had turned on by hand and a 3/4 socket wrench without the discs before and apparently hadn't bottomed out but was spinning from slight binding - turned on to bottom out fine with one tire on ground in reverse now...
after tightening down though the bearing is still wonky - might have nicked the abs sensor as well - looks like I'll take it all off and check that bearing - remove strut assembly etc.
question is on the tool used to press the hub and bearing - prev. post mentioned a special part# - I have a generic bearing seperator from harbor freight that looks right, but no press anyway... assume it can be done w/ generic press accesories or possibly availible locally if I had a physical description? I suppose just taking it to a presser would be able to tell me...
