Uh-oh.

Went out for a test drive, and it was great!  Even had to stop and take
the soft top off -- yahoo!

Unfortunately, developed a chirp in the left front.  At first it was
only when the car was going straight, turning left or right made it go
away.  But, by the time I got it home, it was pretty much chirping
constantly.  Metal kind of chirp.  Ugh.

Left front grease cap was too hot to touch.  Have I fried my new front
bearings?  What could I have done wrong?
