I think I may have done the right thing for the wrong reasons. My bike was making a clicking noise under load, I thought it must be the bearings in the rear suspension, and when I took the upper rocker apart one of the bearings was indeed goosed. Then the noise came back. I thought, just before I stripped the rocker arms off, "lets just try another wheel in there", and sure enough it's stopped the noise. So - I diagnosed and changed a buggered bearing due to a totally unrelated noise coming from (I think and hope) a loose cassette locking. D'oh.
