    Jack front end up and place on stands. Grab tire at the 12 and 6 o'clock position and push/pull. Grab tire at the 3 and 9 o'clock position and push/pull. If you feel movement or play bearings are shot. That's how I was told anyways. I'm sure someone with more experience will chime in. Hope this helps
