Resolved rotor peeling and wobble?

[Tea]

Happening only after i took out my tranny and replaced the clutch. Seems fine other than a noise. It's worse on turns. the noise seems to be from the metal peeling from the rotor?
maybe the rotor is hitting the caliper.

Looks like your wheel bearing is shot.

That appears to be a wheel bearing in dire need of replacement. If it were me, I would replace the wheel bearing/hub before even considering taking that out on a road risking yourself and others around you.

Honestly id be surprised if there is even a wheel bearing in there....

Shouldn't have used an impact on my axle nut. seems to be the cause for my damaged bearing

 

[2gmitsueclipse]

Using an impact wouldn't be the cause of the failed wheel bearing. An issue must have already been present. I can't remember the last time I used anything but an impact to beak an axle nut loose.

Wheel bearing looks new, my guess is you have not done it up correctly, have you confirmed its torque range, and that your axle has not split inside the shaft?

Gotta ask...what are you looking at to say bearing looks new? You cant see it in that video.

The shiney clean surface face of the bearing poking through the rotor hat, i assumed more then anything ,

I knew he never said he replaced it but it is not rusty yet so it must be fairly new (ish)

But i think sincd it happened after the axles went back in i still think 2 things really, the nuts not to spec or he pushed his inner cap off when pushing the axle out, or 3, axle is cracked. All guesses

None of the wheel bearings are externally visible on a DSM. They are either part of the hub assembly on the integral hubs or inside the spindle with the hub pressed in. That hub is shot.

Well i took the hub from this video as shiney and 99% of people change the whole unit not the bearing housing. And the hub is visable through the disc and thats what i was reffering to, so thats the reason for my answer, not that im stupid or anything

replaced the whole bearing and hub. went ahead and replaced rotor too (threw some high temp primer on it).
now the damn wheel won't spin after putting the caliper on. Perhaps the rotor is on wrong. I tried pumping the breaks. I guess i'll take it apart again

 

[pauleyman]

Are the caliper pins stuck?

 

[Tea]

I bought some caliper grease from autozone and greased them up. Maybe I should have extended them somehow? I'm quite newbie

 

[pauleyman]

I only see two possibilities. Stuck caliper pins or stuck caliper piston. If either of those are true could also have beem a contributor to the failed bearing.

 

[FIBA M - EC17PSE]

Did you push the piston in the caliper back before you put the new rotors on? Apaet from the above it might cause the tension to stop the rotor from spinning freely, i have done this before when i was new so its easily done

Uneven rotor. Probably should have put exile nut on first

 

[FIBA M - EC17PSE]

Tap it down or do a lug nut up and sit it down

 

[Tea]

Nothing to do with exle nut. I'll put on all the nuts this time and reassemble

 

[steve]

We've had issues with rotors not having a matching inside radius. You'll note that the hub has a fillet between the center and the rotor mounting surface. Make sure the inside of the rotor has a matching radius machined from center hole.

Found the problem

You got awd rotors and not fwd rotors , Do'h

 

[pauleyman]

Looks like you bought gsx rotors for your fwd car?

 

[Simonsaysr1]

yeah those are not the right rotors , Gsx rotors are a tad bit thicker ,well atleast the problem was found haha
