Re: 2003 trailblazer lt 4wheel drive
- Remove the tire and wheel center cap.
- Remove the drive axle nut.
- Raise and support the vehicle. Remove the tire and wheel. .
- Remove the brake rotor.
- Disengage the wheel drive shaft from the wheel hub and bearing. Place a brass drift against the outer end of the wheel drive shaft in order to protect the wheel drive shaft threads. Sharply strike the brass drift with the hammer. Do not attempt to remove the wheel drive shaft from the wheel hub and bearing at this time.
- Remove the wheel hub and bearing from the steering knuckle by removing the three bolts coming in from the back side of the knuckle.
Of course you may have to use a hammer to loosen the bearing from the knuckle.
Good Luck
after replacing the driverside outer tie rod end due to excessive wear the trailblazer still makes a growling noise comming from the driverside and there is a little vibration in the steering wheel and gas pedal could the noise be a wheel bearing assy or maybe the tires?
wrench and tires symbol loud noise while driving and seems like your in 4wheel when in two
