I have a 2002 Town n Country and i think the hub has gone out there is alot of poping and clicking noises on the front passanger side.. there is less noise when a heaver person is in the car on that side. I was going to pull the wheel stop bolt (Think think that is the right part name) but i have a 33 mm nut bolt and it is too small any idea the right size.. i pulled the pin and it is too small. i figured this would be a good place for help since i am female that hates others to work on my car.

 

u can buy and or barrow a socket set for the axel nut is a 32 or 34

 

Thank you! Im only guessing the hub cause i have dont he push and rocking test for the poping noise and i cant recreat it. all the bushings tie rod ends look good no leaks. so im 80 % sure that is it.

 

Ok,

Roll down the drivers window and close the door. Have the assistant grab the top of the door frame and rock the car left to right.

Now, reach around the wheel and grab onto the sway bar link. any noticeable play, or "KNOCKING" will be painfully obvious.

with the car sitting still, you cannot duplicate the noise, and with the car jacked up, the weight is on the sway bar bushings, and you cant duplicate the noise.

Bearings Typically dont Knock, they groan and grind, which will get more intense as you go faster. Also....

Lift the hood, and reach into the strut tops, as your assistant continues to rock right to left. Excessive up and down movement of the strut shaft is reason enough to change the mounts.
