Re: Smoking Front Bearing/Hub/axle/brake
 
Yes, I've had many brake hoses clog by I guess coming apart inside,
maybe making a pressurized rubber pocket inside the liner, as I've seen
with four inch hazardous waste transfer hose. Usually giving us the
uneasy feeling of having the front end pull one way and then then the
other way.
