Front bearing hub?

Good morning,

Can you post a video of what you see? What do you mean by the U bolt? This sounds normal to me here is a video to show you how to replace the front bearing hub.

Please run down this guide and report back.

Okay, you mean the yoke. That makes sense.

You have what is called an open rear. When you turn one side, the yoke will not turn. The other wheel should turn the opposite way.

If you had a limited-slip differential, then when you tune one wheel, the yoke will turn.

Hello,

Should be a 34mm or 36mm deep socket. Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

So are you talking about the axles or the bearing?Also front or rear?Let me know.

Sounds good let me know what he say's is bad and we will go from there.

The cheapest i saw one was for 117 for a duralast at auto zone there timken one was 200 which is a good brand but they have a timken for 160 and a acdelco one for 248 at www.rockauto.com plus i have a 5 percent off discount code for them.I have gotten a lot of part's from them there pretty price's on most of there stuff.I would go with timken.It's not a bad price at 160 and it's good quality if you decide to get it from rock auto let me know and i will give you the 5 percent discount code.Or if you find it cheaper somewhere else that's great too.It's not that hard to do they only charge 1.5hrs labor i posted the instruction's on how to replace it for you.
