  1. @Precise1 i bled the entire system a couple times checked the all the lines and they seem to be ok. No leaks or expansions or bends
  2. Alrighty so i went to repack the bearings a third time. I didnt tho because during the process i notice the brakes were a little bit pressed against the rotor. When i spin the passanger side while its jacked up i notice it doesnt spin as long as the drivers side with the wheels on. The old brake pads on the passanger side where i have the heat problem are way more worn then the drivers old pads. So i changed the caliper pins, new boots also and cleaned the bracket. Still had heat and was sticking so i changed the whole caliper. Still sticking. I have changed the brake line to that side 6 months ago do to a leak, and the master brake cylinder 5 months ago because it was leaking from the seal. Now im a little lost again. I know the bearings are set correctly. What else could it be that is cuasing this? Also when i brake it jerks to the right side as well a little. Thought it might have been cuase i have play in my stearing
  3. @SpecialWarr i think u were correct. Reset the bearings and upon taking apart they did feel a little tight. Drove it around for 20-30min and didnt feel hot just warmish if even. Thank you for the reply[emoji1]
  4. Hello im new to this forum found some helpful tips so far. I replaced both my cv axles yesterday along with the brake pads, upper & lower balljoints, tie rod ends, and some wheel seals. I also put on some warn premium manual hubs. All was pretty simple except when it came to the wheel bearings. I checked for play before taking it apart while it was jacked upand had none so i figured the bearing were ok. So now that i have it all together there is a lil bit of play in the passanger side. I replaced the drivers side inner seal since i damaged it. One problem there when i put the seal in is the seal suppose to hold the bearing down or is there suppose to be some space in between the seal and inner bearing? Or should i have set the bearing in the race before putting the seal on? On the passanger side i just repacked the outer bearing and added grease to the inner and this one had space between the seal and inner bearing. So im a lil lost on how it should go on. I didnt have the locknut socket so i used the 2 screwdrivers and another big one to screw it on. Tightened it and back off a lil and checked for play, had none or so i thought. I found the socket at napa incase i need it later. So now i have it how it is and i drove it around for like half an hr in the city and i remembered that to check the hubs if they get warm wich could indicate a bad bearing. The drivers side is a little warm like hold it for 5 seconds before it starys to burn ur hand. the passanger side is a little hotter. Is this normal? Could it be becuase i have new brake pads? Maybe i didnt set the bearings correctly? Any help would be apreciated[emoji20] sorry for crappy write up, did it during my lunch brake while eating
