Random Little Question Thread
^ all guessing, left to right is tought as the cars tend to sag on one side. You can use a caliper to measure distance between collars or your can count threads.
Other than that, just keep adjusting.

One way, depending on how bad the bearing is worn, you can jack your car up on one side, leaving the wheel bolted on, grab the top and bottom of the tire and attempt to wiggle the wheel/tire. If there is play, there is a bad bearing. This is more noticeable on the rear than the front. My fronts got loud, humming at higher speeds before I replaced them.
The front is only sold as a complete assembly, hub and bearing. The rear you can purchase the bearing only and hub seperately. If you purchase the bearing alone, you need to have the old one pressed off and the new one pressed back in by your mechanic.
