Claim:
A system for use in measuring an endplay of a bearing of a wheel hub assembly, the system comprising: a cap attachable to an end of a shaft of the wheel hub assembly; a frame having a measurement probe attached thereto, said probe configured to contact said cap and measure relative movement of said cap to determine an endplay of a bearing of the hub assembly on the shaft; said frame comprising a plurality of legs extending from said frame to a hub of the hub assembly mounted on said shaft and coupled to said bearing to support said frame relative to the hub; a handle connected to said frame, said handle extending substantially perpendicularly relative to an axis of the shaft and extending to opposite sides of the axis; and said frame, said plurality of legs and said handle sufficiently rigid to allow a user to apply a force to said handle to move the hub in an axial direction relative to the shaft until a cessation of movement of the hub relative to the shaft.
