'99 Astro
I know its not an s10 or a blazer but it has the 4.3. I thought i'd get you guys help. The other day my dad was telling me about a weird sound coming from the front of the van when he drives it. I dont think its anything on the engine cuz when i rev it up it doesn't do it(SOUNDS LIKE ITS S/C TOO!!). Well, i drove it today and it is a loud hum that you can hear AND feel. Wondering what it is but can't pinpoint it, maybe this has happen to one of you guys. Any help is greatly appreciated

Re: '99 Astro
i just went ahead and changed both out on each side, might as well seeing as i was almost there anyway. The bearings had like an orange color to them, is that bad?
