.....they pull me back in.
So I finally finished my epic front axle service and 'thought' I'd finished, but now my front hubs are getting pretty toasty.
Now I'm not sure how warm they're supposed to get as I didn't often fondle my wheel nuts after driving, however now they're getting to the point where they're too hot to touch.
I installed new bearings and followed Julian's method for applying preload and everything turned easily and smoothly and was within the tolerances described in the guide.
I thought it was possibly the brakes but I've done about thirty miles since it was done and the issue persists.
Any ideas?
