wheel bearing issue?

I have a 1985 k10 on 33s. It runs and drives fine but the other day I noticed I can push the front right tire about an inch or 2 in and out. The ball joints look fine. I am assuming the only other thing it could be is the wheel bearing. Any ideas? How long does it take to do wheel bearings on these trucks? Thanks

Re: wheel bearing issue?

You should check it out more before you drive it again. If it's a bad wheel bearing you can ruin your spindle pretty quick. I usually notice any funny vibrations but I didn't feel my wheel bearing going out and it ruined the spindle, doh. You may have gotten lucky and caught it in time.
