Thread: Noise from LH

I'd do both, the other mightn't be far away

I can confirm that anything less than the best fail. I had two bearmachs in a row fail within a few thousand kms

Fronts do look a lot easier than the rear due to replacing the whole hub assembly in one piece.
I'm considering doing all 4 for piece of mind on the next trip though, then i won't carry them as spare parts anymore, significantly bringing down weight...

Not sure which is the better option though, carrying them in case one goes or changing them all and hope that prevents failure.. 215k kms old now.

Yup my guy has had the same problem no warranty on them .
