Wheel hub bearing replacement

[Brandon Poorman]

Can anyone give me some pointers to tackling replacing my right hand side hub bearing on my 01 4x4? I also would greatly appreciate if someone would email me the pages out of the service manual pertaining to this job.



Thanks in advance!

there is a great write up in the project section that is worth checking out it has pics too.

Check projects section, look in maintenance, Woppy has a good write up. Hardest part is getting old hub out, use a good heavy hammer and chisel. An air gun will make getting the axle bolt off easier. Other than that it not a hard job. If your brakes are in need of replacing now would be a good time to do them.

I did the passenger side on my 02 a few weeks ago. Job was easier than I thought it would be and went without a hitch. The project will give you some good pointers.

Yes, I've taken a look at the project and it is a fantastic write up. My normal mechanic shot me a price for it and I really don't have time to do it right now, so I'm going to let him have the truck on Wednesday.



Thanks all for the advice and help!
