opinions on repack versus replacement of front wheel bearing on an abs 92 wagon.

current bearings seem fine excepting when i jack the front end up taking stress off each of the wheels.

if i place one hand at 12 oclock and 1 hand at 6 oclock on the tire and wiggle i can hear slight clink. this is true on both wheels.

ball joints and all steering related parts are in excellent shape.

the sound imo is bearings, but maybe someone else has a better notion.

if it is bearings.........repack or replace?

the car drives fine with bad bearing sounds of any kind.

ps: is scantech from groton fcp a decent bearing? the price is much lower than the oem? is the quality also much lower?
