Great video. Just had my rear passenger start humming like crazy. I thought wheel bearing and so did Les Schwab, so hopefully I'm on the right track? Thanks for the video!

Nice video, I'm sure it will help. How can you tell if the wheel bearing is broken? Or what sound did it makes?

Thank you Great video! Im trying to diagnose a vibration in my recently imported C5 into Australia. Found rear passenger wheel has movement in the 9-3 o'clock position. (None in the 12-6 position ). Im thinking wheel bearing or tie rod end?

9-3 is tie rod, 12-6 is bearing

I’m thinking you should put the stock calipers and rotors you took off the front ,and put them on the rear?

How did you stop the lower ball joint from spinning? You didn't show that.

You said the lower ball joint takes a 13/16 wrench. I thought all the fasteners in the Corvette were now metric. Is that 13/16 perhaps really a 21 mm and you just didn't have the 21 mm socket or wrench? Looking at your tool assortment and obvious experience, I find it difficult to imagine not having a 21 mm. Thanks for the video.

The Corvette is unique in this regard. It's manufactured in Bowling Green Kentucky but also uses parts from other GM vehicles that were manufactured in Mexico. Some parts are metric and others are Imperial. It can be quite annoying.

@@gaiusoctavius4811 MEXICO? That's obscene. I've been to the Bowling Green assembly facility and museum. Whatever SAE parts exist, I haven't run into them yet. Everything has been solidly metric. A foreign system, but easy to work with.

@@salvadormonella8953 no it’s not obscene lol. This is back in the late 90’s early 2000’s. These things are 20+ years old now. It’s how it is. I have a c6 and c5z.
