I just had the wheel hub assembly replaced on my 98 chev blazer 4wd. It was making a rumbling sound and vibrating when i would hit a bump, make a rt turn, or had to stop abruptly, but would work itself out after a short distance. This was done 2 days ago, and ran fine with no noise or vibrating for about a day. Now it is rumbling even worse and won't stop unless I come to a complete stop, then whithin a few seconds of driving again starts vibrating and rumbling worse than before. Any insight would be helpful as I feel I may be being taken for a ride with this mechanic. Thanks in advance, S. Price

Hi,Was The Front Rear checked To see If It's Full Of Gear oil? The Bearing May Have Been Bad , But Maybe The front rear Is Going bad Too.With the high mileage You have 156,000 The Bearings In the Front Rear May be Going. What i would Have Done was Run this car On the lift And listened Too All Noises First.



Hope This Helps You,
Good Luck
