Wheel bearing problem

[TIPTOP123]

found out i needed a wheel bearing the other day so ordered 1 and desided 2 put it in today so took the strut out and then found it was the wrong bearing but lucky enough i got the rite one in a local shop which had it on the shelf so then the next problem was i couldnt get the old one out of the strut so after aload of f**king about trying 2 get it out i desided 2 pull the strut out of another vtr im breaking before i took it all out i shook the wheel etc...2 check the bearing first and it all felt as should be but when i put the strut into the other car the movment feels as bad as wot it felt with the other strut/bearing.

so my question is, is ther a certain way the drive shaft gose in or any thing? or somehow is it the wheel bearing again lol

Or maybe the wheel bearing was o.k an its the Axel that's f#cked, Sort of got the same prob. wheel bearing OR Rear Axel that is the question LOL

[TIPTOP123]

as above mate its the front were talking about here lol so defo not the rear axle BUT i already had that problem a while back lol but thats sorted now ;)

Sorted was the drive shaft must have had 2 odd shafts on the car and probley wasnt the bearing in the first place but when i took the first strut out the bearing was that good anyway so was ready 2 go if not part of the prob.

but all sorted now swapped the driveshafts over from the other car ;)
