help w/ advise on front wheel bearing/tie rod Does it sound like I need to replace these? How do yo tell if they are bad?
list of problems below...
80K miles on camaro
front end is shimming(sp) at highway speeds - can feel it in the steering wheel also.
front right wheel makes a ticking sound as it rotates.
I thought I had a warpped rotor - I replaced all rotors and the front right still seems warpped...so could this be the wheel bearing/ hub that is bad making the wheel/rotor seem warpped?
starting to see some odd tire wear on the left tire.
I have rotated the tires/wheels to the back to make sure I did not have an out of balanced wheel/tire. No change.

front bearing If the right front is making a noise and the brakes are new, I would take everything off the right front and spin the hub by hand and see how it feels.You could have a front bearing going bad.
