normally center bearing causes vibrations.... not necessarily noise, but they do go bad on Q.

both of my passenger bearings have gone bad, i did the front a while back and now im just about to do the rear bearing 129$ not too bad on price, however this may be because of what the owner before did to the car, but havent herd of a center bearing yet tho, if u need a nice price on wheel bearing go to Timken, good price they may have what u need

nice Q by the way wes! i cant belive its a 94. mine is starting to rust on each rear wheel panel and near the bottom of the front doors. so you think that it may be the wheel bearing ? there is a whinning noise and ive noticed that the brakes abs seems to kick in more all of a sudden at the end of a stop. i had two replaced front right and rear left but neither sounded like this. thanks
