Found my noise and hopefully the slight vibration I be been having on the 72 . Didn’t see anything other than needing shoes but I kept spinning the bearings found it after two times checking the outer bearing is toast . So I’m ordering all the wheel bearings/races tonight . Was thinking that one of the springs failed and was scraping around

Glad you caught it early enough that it didn't destroy anything.
