What did you do to your truck today?

[Chevy Fleetside]

Well I was on my way to work on the 66 when the Ranger started to make that noise again. There is a noise it has been making when taking a left turn on the freeway but not all the time. Well this time it really started. It sounded like a wheel bearing. It managed to stop binding and I drove it home about 15 miles.
It seems the last dork that did the brake job forgot to put the seal on the left side. I drove this truck 35,000 miles like this. After I got the wheel off I noticed I needed new brakes.
I should have known something was amiss. When I first got the truck it was making a banging sound when ever I went over a bump. I noticed it stopped when I applied the brakes. Well after looking around the same dork that forgot the seal didn't tighten the caliper mount bolts very well. They were making their way out.
Lucky for me I was able to get the remainder of the bearing off.
So I had to work on that truck instead today. I put new rotors, brakes and wheel bearings only on the left side but I did repack all of the bearings. I spent about $150 in parts.

I think I am going up Sunday to work on the 66. I want to get ti started this weekend.
