Can you inspect front unit bearings?
I have a 2005 Dodge 4x4 with front unit bearings. Is it possible to inspect the unit bearings? Do you just wait for failure or at some point..., bite the expensive bullet and go with a free spin hub...

The only thing you can do to inspect a unit bearing is to put a stethascope on it and spin it. If you hear grinding and squeeling, you may be developing a problem, If it's fairly smooth in rotation, then there's not problem to date. That's all you can really do with them inspection wise. You can also see if there's grease leaking out of it, but that's it.
