On a Ford Focus. When I jacked the car up and shook the wheel with my hands there was a bad shake, like a wobble.Is the cause of this the bearing needing to be replaced or is it something else too?
For barrel horses it is better to use a joined bit most of the time to allow them to bend and flex. However I do know a few people who use solid bits and do fairly well. If you choose to use the Tom Thumb remember it is not a snaffle. It is a curb with shanks that increase pressure. I see the Tom Thumb as a bit that you need to know how to use one correctly and need to know how the force acts. If you do not know how to use one or are a beginning rider I wouldn't recommend using one. I would recommend a simple snaffle. The reason Tom Thumbs get such a bad rap is lots of people who don't know how to use one treat it as just a snaffle or just a curb not thinking how it is actually a mix of the 2.
Was your bit with the copper roller a shank bit with a chinstrap or a snaffle bit? It would make a big difference! because if it was a shank bit you would have the leverage that would have more bite than just a snaffle bit.
if you have a front wheel drive car it is most likely s wheel bearing and once you take the tire off and then the dust cap on the end followed by the vig nut you can pull the huv off. If both bearings are worn out the wheel will wovvle a lot
Check the wobble isn't a loose wheel nut first. If they are all tightthen you can jack up the car and place your hands on eithe side of the the wheel. and check for any play by moving the wheel from side to side. If there is play in the wheel, then the fault is a wheel bearing. If there is no play, then grip the wheel top and bottom and checkk for play again. If there is play in the wheel, then you have a worn steering joint. However a badly worn wheel bearing ususally makes a continuous rumbling noise, not just when you brake.
Whoever is advising you does not understand something approximately equine anatomy and biomechanics, or how horses are experienced to settle for the bit and boost the backbone. actual the final element you do while a horse is shifting hollow is to contain leverage in slightly, which backs the pony off of the bit relatively than encouraging him to realize for it and settle for it. you ought to locate a coach who can practice you the thank you to real practice long and occasional in the snaffle and sponge the two fringe of the bit independently as you artwork the pony between your leg and rein aids to boost impulsion, and boost the abdomen and loin muslces necessary to oppose and relax the longissimus muscle tissues that hollow the returned. it is critical to enable your horse to tilt the pelvis forward and work together the hips to boost the backbone. as quickly as your horse is able to try this, his fore will droop and the withers will upward push, and his neck will needless to say assume the suited place for him to then be delivered wisely onto the bit in a rounded physique.
