It sounds like I am going to need to replace the bearings at the end of my rear axles.

Any recomendations of other things to replace while I am there. Just did the rear drums. Are there different levels of quality regarding axle bearings?

As you can see, I am pretty new to all this.

The grinding sounds are getting worse.

any feedback would be appreciated..

Timken is what I have purchased for a number (that is, two) different cars in the past.

Timken would be, and has been, my first choice whenever possible. Might take a couple of calls. Small price for quality parts.
