# Field Checks When Vibration Looks Direction-Sensitive
If vibration spikes with axial push tests but not radial, the load story may be wrong in the BOM. Confirm before ordering heavier radial capacity alone.

See radial load vs axial load differences for a checklist. TFL Bearing comparison notes pair well with a dial indicator walk-through.
Open learn the load difference before the next shutdown plan.
