01 Impala 65k. I recently replaced front pads, rotors and pass side hub bearing. The driver side bearing started grinding and after I replaced it I get a shimmy/vibration I can feel in the front end and stearing wheel going over 60 mph. Tires are recently rotated and aired up. The shimmy did not occur prior to replacing the driver side hub bearing. Any suggestions? Thanks

May have gotten a little crap where the bearing mates to the spindles causing an uneven runout on that wheel. Or where the rotor mates on the hub. Jack it up, and put it in drive, watch for the wobble.
