I have a 2000 Ranger with 113000 miles with a left front bearing humming from what I've heard this is sold only as a complete hub replacement. Is the new hub pressed on and is it a job that can be done without taking it to a garage Also is ther a way to find out if the truck was built before 6/22 or after

Thanks

Hey nmb,
The hub and bearing assy should be bolted in and may take a bit of "persuasion" to get out (rust/corrosion), if your truck has ABS then the sensor/harness will come w/ the hub. Don't forget to torque the axle nut to spec!
