wheels aren't spinning after bearing installation

[sleepyzze110]

i just installed my radioshack metal bearings onto my civic, i'm using stock rims, blue suspension in front, and awd kit, after i installed my front bearings, and i put the wheels on, the wheels dont spin freely, something is caught and it's preventing my wheel from spinning, i was wondering if anyone else had problems with this, and how did they solve it? i didnt' install the rear kit yet, but i'm hoping for an answer before i finish the rear

if you have AWD then your front wheels wont spin freely because now they have a differntal there!!!!!!!!!! :roll_eye: :roll_eye: :roll_eye:

i tighten them just as i would without the bearings, and i know they dont spin "freely" with the awd, but now even if i try to spin the wheel by hand, it wont spin, and something is clicking everytime the wheel goes around

ok make sure that thr front axels are in the cup joints

yes they are, when i drive the car, the wheels spin fine, but when i try to spin them by hand, i hear a clicking noise and it feels like something is caught

Thats normal. Don't keep trying to turn a wheel by hand. That clicking noise is the teeth skipping in the Front Differential. You may be causing damage to it.
