I amtrying to decide if I need to replace my trailing arm bearings.
On the passenger side arm it fills tight maybe just the tiniest little in out movement.
But,when you turn the flange in the back I can feel a little drag in one place.
Driverside is also tight but,when you turn the flange it sounds like maybe there is a little grit in the grease.
The drivers side must have been worked on before because the brake roader is not rivited to the arm.

Should I replace these bearings?
 
Remove the brake hat so you don't feel the parking brake shoes, flip them aroudn and slide over the studs and use them for turning, check if you feel what you felt before.
