Finally, I have the cause of the road noise. First I thought it was the tires, but when the car was on the lift, we found out I was wrong :0 -> the rear bearings have had it. Around 55 mph the roar is so loud from the rear I can't hold a conversation on the cell phone (I normally don't use the phone in the car unless I have to).
The parts listings at www.hondaautomotiveparts.com show the following two parts: BEARING ASSY., HUB UNIT (FUJIKOSHI) $97.92 BEARING ASSY., RR. HUB UNIT $97.92 Does the second part only replace the Right Rear (RR) or does it matter? Also, the Helms has a note: "after tightening the spindle nut, use a drift punch to stake the spindle nut shoulder onto the spindle" What the **** does this mean? Anyone done the rear bearings? TIA!
