Car:
92 Civic Si USDM (hatch)
b-series swap
Correct axles, intermediate shaft
Issue:
Driver Side
slight grinding and a "thumping" that increases with speed of the vehicle in a straight line.
NO effect on the steering
Sound dissipates when turning.
I was suspecting a wheel bearing, but didn't think the thumping would be indicative of a wheel bearing issue.
Thought my wheel was out of round or the weights came off of the wheel when the tire was balanced, but the wheel stands alone at all angles and rolls straight ( tested with car on stands and letting out the clutch).
The wheel bearing is my primary suspect, but with suspensions there could be any number of things in line and some experienced input would be appreciated.
