I have a Cub Cadet LTX 1046 the left front tire wears evenly but the right front tire is badly worn on the inside is there as adjustment to even out the wear? Both tires were just replaced.

If it is only wearing on the inside edge your wheel alignment is wrong. The most common cause is the tyre is 'toe out'. The tyre isn't pointing straight ahead like the one on the other side. It is sticking out at the front edge.
Take the car to a good tyre and suspension specialist and get your 'tracking' and 'alignment' checked. They should check your track rod ends and suspension mounts as well.

Uneven rear tyre wear

Good day
This sounds strange. You have to confirm if the rear diff is mounted correct and confirm that the diff is not bent. The easy way is to take it in to a tire shop and check the wheel alignment.
Good luck.

We have a 1998 Saturn SW1 station wagon and the motor mount broke and we need to fix it. Any ideas?

The top and side mounts are easy, unless you snap off a bolt. To do the side dog bones, remove the right front service panel behind the wheel, yes you have to take the tire off, and remove the battery tray on the left side. Remove the long screws holding the tray on through the left front wheel well. Replacing the dog bones is take out the two bolts and then bolt the new ones in. Top mount is simply loosen the nuts, remove and replace, tricky part is to support the engine while you swap the mount. Bottom mount takes a little more time and a jack. If you never changed the tensioner, you may want to do this while you have that right front service panel open.

I have a 1987 toyota camry, at times the steering

check the motor mounts/transmission mounts for excessive wear. Open the hood and with the emergency brake on and the rear wheels blocked with bricks (front and back of the rear tires) have a friend stand to the side and a few feet back of the engine. The other person gets in the car, starts it and with your left foot applied constantly to the brake pedal, use the right foot to rev the motor up and down in drive, then in reverse. You are looking for the engine to show movement front to back or side to side excessively. The engine will stay virtually still during this test if the mounts are good but it sounds like on ore more may be bad.

My 94 plymouth voyager sounds and acts like a wheel bearing humm. i've replaced front and rear wheel bearings and the humm is still there.

I'd certainly rotate tires to see if noise changes at all, as well as take a good look at tread on front tires, especially for excess or unusual wear on edges, especially outside of right front, if your quite sure the noise is coming from the right side. Does the noise increase, decrease, or stay same, on a left hand turn? Another thing would be to check all motor, and transmission mounts and see if it looks like things may have shifted slightly, or if they appear worn or broken, as well as If engine/transaxle has shifted slightly it can cause similar noises as well. As far as left front bearing goes, I wouldn't rule it out 100% either, unless you are positive noise is from right front area. You have to remember, either way you turn the wheel, will slightly shift either bearing if there is play in it. Rule out easy stuff first like tires.

My front tire wears uneven all the time. the left

Depends on a hundred things ... like tire pressure (#1 problem), how you ride, how you load your bike, how do you stop, are you always turning left (are you in NASCAR?), is it the right size to start with, what is the condition of the pavement, do you allow others to run your machine, is it balanced, is it a one way only tire and maybe on backward?

In my experience, since there are only two tires on my bike, and I don't want ANY trouble with them, I start watching my tires immediately and at any sign of uneven wear, they are gone. I run only high quality tires and I and fanatical about the air pressure.

Thanks for your interest in FixYa.com

Left front tire wears out since the car was new

If it's choppy the tire is bouncing up and down. Either the tire is not balanced correctly or something is wrong with the shock or spring.
