If you have been replacing the same bearing over and over it can be from a worn out hub not holding the press very well.. keep that in mind if this bearing goes out again.


AND TELL THEM TO TORQUE IT TO 208 FT/lbs.. no matter what they say about it being too much.. watch them torque it.... (and get a new axle nut.. don't let them reuse the same one.. alot of places wouldn't think to replace it.. REPLACE IT... $8.50-ish at a dealer.. take it yourself to make sure..

I'd hate for that bearing to fail in 10K-ish miles because it wasn't torqued enough, or for your wheel to come off because the old axle not didn't hold (since it is a one time use nut)

Again, thanks for your suggestions and comments. I do appreciate them.

I'm on the Parts Counter Express, can you point me in the right direction of the Axle nut part number? I'll try to pick one up tonight on the way home.
