play in the rear wheels

well luckly my rims arent warped, was knocked out of balance, but checked the front/rear and the fronts are good, no play, but when i grab the driver side rear at 12/6 and wiggle u feel play, same for the passenger side, but not as bad at the driver....

what would cause that? bad rear wheel bearing?

i would look at the 5 links, the ball joints and the bearing.

can i take off the wheel, and use a pry bar and start looking for play? also i changed the rear bj, with a camber kit (#21) being used and did hear clunking here and there when the rear is in a steep angle/drop.......say that failed, and broke off, worst case scenario, would the whole knuckle fall off like the front?


also if it was the bearing, wouldnt it be more of a untrue spin on the wheels? rather than in and out action?

just throw the stock bj back on and see if that fixes it, if so, you need a new camber kit(a better one this time)

What kind do you have? I plan to go with ingalls...
