I hadn't driven the car for over a week, and drove it to work today. I heard the noise on the way to work, but didn't hear it on the way home. Can a bearing get noisy from sitting for a while?

Rotors can.  I don't know about bearings.

Is this a front or rear bearing?
There are three kinds of men:

1.    The ones that learn by reading.
2.    The few who learn by observation.
3.    The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.    Will Rogers

You might move this on the calendar to the new date.

Good question. I can't tell for sure, but I think it's rear. I bought one just in case, and I have a couple of good used 88 front hubs.

I thought I had a noisy rear CV and when I was replacing it, I noticed grease coming from the bearing.  Replaced it, but that wasn't the problem.  Yet, that is.  It would most likely have failed at the most inopportune time, aka Cowspatoot on the Diamondback. 

I had a front bearing on the 87 that was making noise but it was more pronounced when turning in a certain direction.  I know the 88's are a bit different than the 87 but they still have a spindle, don't they?  If they do, you can put a mechanic's stethoscope against the spindle and spin the wheel.  The spindle doesn't move so you can hear any bearing noise.

Well folks it looks like the weather is going to be fantastic for car show! Mid 60's! I look forward to seeing everyone for some great food fun and fellowship for a great cause! Still looks like we will still have 5-7 Fieros and hope for more from those that follow the forums.

It's good to see that club members are planning to attend.  This sort of thing has the potential to put the club on people's radar.

If we'd had 1 more we would have tied for the club participation award.
