problem now solved



hey all, it turned out that the axle nut had backed out a bit and had 
become loose.  I tightened it down with a nice cheater bar and some 
mental math (as i lack a torque wrench for some reason...) and i plan to 
go to the dealer by the end of the week to get a new nut.

Phil, i know this is your pet peeve.  It looks like when 2bennett did 
everything they inadvertantly re-used the nut...oh well, no harm no foul 
at this point...im just glad i am in tune with my car enough to have 
noticed the subtle vibration.


the squeak should be gone now too...

thanks to mike posner for the response...

i got it after i was done, but thanks anyway...i just had to let the 
brakes cool before getting to work and thought that someone might give me 
some idea that i hadnt thought of..

thanks again...

later...
