    Wil let you all know how the wheel bearing change went.

    Might take 6 months to see if I still have the same prob.

    Cheers

    Changed the front wheel bearings out yesterday and had another wheel balance.
    The U Bute Ute is driving well again.
    We will see how it goes this time.

    Cheers

    I have a 2.8lt 1997 patrol with everything that holds the front end together replaced. I have had the same shake at 80-90 km's have had wheel balances and alignments pre tentioning of swivel hub bearings seems to fix for a period of time and returns I am going to replace both front wheels and have wheel alighment and balance again for the second time this week. To see if that helps as there is nothing left that i can think of.

    Any ideas welcome.

    If the correct balance weights are used and properly fitted, they should not fly off.
