Does your vehicle make a whining noise especially when turning or maybe even a steering
wheel vibration ?
UMR Engines Brisbane can diagnose your vehicle noises to establish where the noise is coming
from. A lot of people assume they have a wheel bearing noise, but in matter of fact it could just
be tyre related.
UMR Engines can remove & install your wheel bearings, from complete hub assembly, tapered
cone type bearings & press in style wheel bearings. UMR Engines only uses high quality &
trusted wheel bearing manufactures for all 2wd and 4wd applications including swivel hub
(tractor joints) on some model 4wd vehicles. Our most popular swivel hub (Tractor Joint)
(knuckle Joint) that we replace is on a Toyota Land Cruiser 78, 80, 90 & 100 series.
There are several reasons why a wheel
bearing can fail
Over loading Poor Quality Incorrect fitting of the wheel bearing Over adjustment of the wheel bearing Lack of grease in the wheel bearing incorrect grade of grease Failure of the dust seal, resulting dust and water contamination Vehicle Accident Wheel bearings should only be fitted by trained technicians for several reasons Safety (Most important) worse case a wheel bearing, or hub can completely come off, resulting in accident Incorrect fitting can cause premature failure of the bearing Damage to the wheel hub Extra expense from damaging other parts from lack of experienceSome Wheel bearings require speciality tools

This video shows a failed Tractor Joint (swivel
hub) on a 4wd. This vehicle was unsafe and could
have caused an accident. A good sign of a
possible worn out, broken or damaged wheel
bearing is a bad steering vibration, loud noise
from the wheel area, vehicle not steering straight,
loud noise when either turning left or right.
While attending to your wheel bearing we will inspect your tyres, brakes, steering & suspension joints to ensure a complete and safe job.
