There's no mention in my manual of a way to check front wheel bearings on my 1991 Civic hatchback. I'm hearing chirps going forward and moans in reverse from the drivers side front. I can feel some play in upper ball joints, but want to eliminate bearings first. Thanks!

 

Ok...the answer is no, this is not a serviceable part. It is factory sealed and should not need replacement.

I checked upper and lower ball joints for play and everything is tight. Tie rod has some play in it. With the wheels on the ground, I hear a knocking when I pull back at the top of the tire. Looks like the brake pads are close to done with. I'm guessing brakes are most likely the source of the noise at this point. Will update on progress.
