99/00 wheel bearings
Anyone else having early rear wheel bearing failure? Mine is getting really noisy under accelaration. When I am coasting I can't hardly hear it. Just curious if maybe I am just to hard on the ol' steed, or it's a common ordeal.

I had mine replaced around 16000 miles. I was not hard n the car. There was a thread on the subject here a few months ago.

yes, rear bearings and throw out bearings are a very common defect on the 99-y2k's. check other sites like the corral and stangnet. there are lots of complaints about these two issues.

I think Black99GT is referring to front wheel bearings .
Anyone else having early rear wheel bearing failure? Nope the rear ones. I guess I'll have to take it in. Glad though it's not just mine. ------------------ Black 99 GT 3.73 gears Mac power chamber 2 chamber Flows Mac cold air induction |
