FAQs About Mitsubishi Triton Wheel Bearing Replacement
How frequently should I inspect Mitsubishi Triton wheel bearings?
Regular checks every 30,000 kilometres or 18,000 miles are recommended. If you frequently venture off-road, consider more frequent inspections.
Can I replace only one bearing, or should I replace both at once?
For optimal outcomes, it's advisable to replace both front wheel bearings simultaneously. If one shows wear, the other might not be far behind.
What's the role of bearing grease in this process?
Bearing grease lubricates the bearings, reducing friction and heat buildup. This ensures smooth rotation and extends the bearing's life.
Can a novice undertake this replacement without mechanical experience?
While possible, this task demands basic mechanical understanding. If uncertain, consulting a mechanic is the best choice.
How do Terrain Tamer Mitsubishi Triton wheel bearings compare to factory bearings?
Terrain Tamer bearings are built for durability and performance, making them ideal for both everyday driving and off-road endeavours. Their robust design often outshines stock bearings.
