My 1993 Saturn sl2 has a bad passenger wheel spindle.  I thought it was the bearing, but the guy at the machine shop said it was the spindle.  The junkyard I got it from is closed for 2 weeks for deer season.  I just wanted to know if it is safe to drive with a bad wheel spindle.  I also have a hub with a bearing that is starting to go bad, so I was wondering which one I should install on the car.  Thanks.

no if the spindle breaks you will have no control and probably wreck the car far as the hub and bearing i would just replace them both at the same time hope this helps
