Do I need to get an alignment done after having wheel bearings replaced?

 

If the lower strut mount was taken off the hub, then yes.

 

Thanks for the reply. This is regarding a pedal vibration I have been experiencing since I had the 4 struts and left and right cv shafts replaced.

Never had a pedal vibration before getting everything done. They did a 4 wheel alignment after the work and was getting a pedal vibration. They went ahead and repalced the wheel bearings. It helped with the vibration a little but still experience it. I was thinking it might be b/c they did not redo the alignment after the wheel bearing work.

 

A vibration at certain speeds is almost certainly an out of balance tire/wheel. Does is happen all the time, at all speeds? A faulty alignment usually won't cause a vibration, it would more likely me a pull in one direction or a change in handling (darting, tracking ruts, loose on center,etc)and eventual uneven tire wear.

The problem is I feel a pedal vibration between 30-50. I'm thinking it has to do with the cv work they did. Since it didn't do it before.

 

how much was it to get the wheel bearings replaced?

 

Sears didn't charge me b/c I had the struts and cv shafts replaced there but it would've beena round $130.

 

Well I had a vibration at 60-75mph. It was caused by the left front toe being out of spec. It also pulled to one side. Im not sure what you mean by a pedal vibration. My steering wheel was vibrating.

 

Whenever I accelerate, I feel a vibration from the accelerator pedal. bad around 50-70 mph.

 

So when you let off the gas the vibration goes away?

 

yep.

 

Drive shafts....

 

I had the both cv shafts replaced. I figure they did it improperly or something. I am going to nissan today since Sears claims they can't feel the vibration. I had a 3 hr trip yesterday and its there.
