[QUOTE="Jerry G., post: 1036493, member: 72465"] I just replaced my front hub bearings . The front wheels can be tight with no play and the bearing be humming . It will hum first and as it gets worst the hum may even go away for a while . The back bearings can be a little different ,you might have some play in the wheel right away and you may also have to have the back bearings pressed out . The hardest thing for me with the front bearings was breaking the bolts loose without an impact wrench . Also the front axle nut needs to be torqued down to 184 foot pounds when finished .This is very critical ,as if it is not torqued properly the bearing will wear prematurely. If my back bearings go I will let a shop do that job . At 74 I'm getting to old to do this stuff any more. I have a 2007 sport trac XLT 4x4 [/QUOTE]
