Anyone know if this tool will work with our X's?

Yes, I just did mine last weekend. I bought it from HF, and it looks exactly like the one you posted. I will give you a couple tips. Make sure you grease the threads of that long bolt. I stripped 2 of them, my bad. Also, take out your wheel speed sensor at the beginning. I didn't on mine and broke it. Its a bitch of a job, but not too bad. Took me maybe 2 hours total.

If you use puller with 3/4" bolt you will need to heat/freeze. With 7/8 or 1" bolt no temperature help needed.
As mentioned about stripping the 3/4"? Bolt, it's quite undersized for this job. The math worked to about 35,000# to remove and 25,000# to install. 3/4" hardened bolt it's good for about 21,000. I drilled mine out to 1" to bump that up to 62,000#.

You said you have 235s correct? Best way to determine if bearing is to swap to wider or smaller wheels.maybe someone has a 255/55/18 you can try.

75 mph :
75 * 5280/3600=110 ft/sec 110/7.3=15.068 rev per sec 40/15=2.667 Should not be in the bearing nor CV axle. I would look into drive train. 4.1:1 differential. 15.068*4.1=61.779 hz so that shouldn't be it either. Do the frequency test at a different speed. I have a feeling something is causing a harmonic but weird when not at a ratio of the wheel RPM.

Yes, 235's. I'll have to look around and see if I can find someone with one that has different wheels. Around here they are becoming quite rare. Lots of people here with lots of money so they don't hang on to cars long.

It's all connected. 2.6 x RPM of wheel is strange though did you have another frequency spike that was faster or slower just not as tall?
