Is there a way to know your wheel bearings are bad? I just started noticing it a couple days ago. I notice it mostly on the highway. It feels like im going over little bumps. It shouldnt be any front end parts. I just replaced all of them less than a year ago.

Would it be wheel bearings or something else?

Jack front end up and shake the wheels by hand. Look for play

Yeah I know I have a bad right wheel bearing but I checked it again and its about the same movement as it was months ago. I posted a picture in the What did you do today sticky of the amount of weights I have in one spot. Idk if thats it.

The drivers side doesnt have any play.

Replaced less than a year ago. Idk if this is the problem but I was low on power steering fluid so I put a little of what I had left in and it was a better. Not 100% but better. Ill top it off tomorrow and see what happens.
