OK, there are many comments that it is dangerous to drive with the axle nut removed. THIS MAY BE TRUE. I am just stating what has worked for me in the past when you have a 'hard to diagnose' hub bearing. Now if your hub bearing is completely wiped out, it should be easy to find without having to remove the axle nut or driving without it. For me, most of the time, I was able to diagnose the bad hub bearing simply by jacking up the front end and attempting to 'lift' the wheel either up and down or in and out. Doing so usually will reveal the 'play' in the bad bearing. However, on 3 occasions, I had a bad bearing that had no play using the standard method. The first revealed itself after removal of the axle nut and using the procedure I just described. The second and third did not have any play and my only option was to give it a quick drive, nothing more than a half mile or so, and nothing high speed. I did this method without incident and was able to diagnose the bad bearing. I understand that ,many feel this is unsafe, therefore I am not telling anyone to do it, just letting you know what my experience has been. Proceed at you own risk using the method you feel most comfortable with. After reading the comments, I will try to exhaust all options before trying this method again. It is my opinion, the reason why I was able to do this without any unwanted failure, was that the bearing was still 'tight' and in good enough condition other than making the rotational groan. In both instances there was little to no play in the bad bearing.
