Wandering loose steering and wheel bearings

[roundhouse]

A little tip......... When repacking wheel bearings place the bearing and grease inside a zip lock bag and then knead the grease into the bearings with your thumbs. Add more grease to your  bag as needed. No MESS!!!

And if you have one of those vacuum sealer things in the kitchen.  They work great

Put the bearing and grease in the bag.  Vacuum seal it a time or two and it gets the grease in all the spots

I didn't see this suggestion above but steering slop can also come from the rag joint. there's another name for  it, but I forgot.
