Great video. Just finished mine and the squeaky sound went away. Question, is it normal the grease came out from the hole after I landed the vehicle from the car jacks? Thx

I don't think it's a problem in the Northeast. My 2018 Tesla Model 3P with 28,000 miles which spent its whole life in Northern CA (very little rain, no salt EVER) has the problem. It just seems like a matter of time before this happens to ALL teslas, perhaps the ball joint geometry eventually moves the grease away from the ball, or they skimped on grease when they built the ball joint!!!

Was the brake holding it if so u can release some tension from the rear to access the tensioner. Made it easy. My axle nut was 30 mm on and 07. I am dealing with the snap ring popping followed new install. Snug the new nut. Spun the NEW drum counter clockwise 10 times while torque to 174ft lbs. The next day noise. Pulled tire 1/2 inch gap took off nut and drum looked inside the snap ring that was factory installed was popped out and the bearing moved in that eztra 1/2 in. I rest the bearing installed the snap ring. Used my other new nut. Same procedure. Next day same thing happened. Not sure if this China made drum is defective from Autozone DuraLast or theres an issue with the hub. I dont see anything like burs or damage but this is odd to happen. I did the other side with a AC delco and no issue in 5 years. This Dura last is a replacement under warranty and its not working. I just dont know how to know if defective or not. But ive already had 2 failures in 2 days with proper torque and installation. Anyone have a thought. If defective ill remove and take back i hope they honor it again becasue nuts are 16 bucks where i am for 1 already went through 2 in 2 days as you can reuse them.
