AURTTA105 Select and use bearings, seals, gaskets, sealants, and adhesives 2 Thoroughly clean all bearing components using appropriate cleaning solutions or solvents. Ensure that the cleaning agent is compatible with the bearing material and won't cause damage. Use a soft brush or lint- free cloth to remove dirt, grease, and any other contaminants from the inner and outer races, rolling elements, and cages. 3 Inspect the cleaned bearing components for signs of wear, damage, or defects. Pay close attention to the rolling elements, raceways, and cage. Look for indications of pitting, cracking, corrosion, or other abnormalities. Also, check for proper lubrication and signs of overheating, such as discoloration. 4 Measure critical dimensions of the bearing components, including internal and external diameters, clearances, and axial play. Refer to the manufacturer's specifications to ensure that the measurements are within acceptable tolerances. If the components pass inspection, reassemble the bearing assembly with new or reconditioned parts as necessary. Apply the appropriate type and amount of lubricant, following the manufacturer's recommendations. 38. What is meant by bearing preload? Bearing preload refers to the intentional application of a controlled axial force or tension to a bearing in order to remove any internal clearances or play between the bearing's components. It's the practice of applying a slight axial load to the bearing components before installation to eliminate any initial looseness or slackness in the rolling elements, raceways, and cage. This can improve the bearing's performance by minimizing internal movement and ensuring proper contact between the rolling elements and raceways. 39. Describe briefly how front-wheel bearings of a rear wheel-drive vehicle would be adjusted. Adjusting front-wheel bearings of a rear-wheel-drive vehicle involves ensuring the proper amount of bearing play to prevent excessive friction, overheating, and premature wear.The bearing is adjusted by tightening the hub nut if it is too loose, or loosening the nut if it is too tight. It should be done with the wheel on and raised on an axle stand. Rock the wheel from side-to-side and top-to-bottom to check for bearing wear.
