Get your complete assembly from Steve at Tousley Ford (he's cheapest amongst our parts sources, at least for THAT particular part. Him and Bill Jenkins are both excellent people and I wouldn't hesitate to give my money to either of them!)

His contact info is in the Duratec Maintenance FAQ.

Incorrect pressing procedure, incorrect axle ut (AKA Locking spindle nut) torque (208-214 FOOT pounds ) and a scarred or worn hub (from a bad bearing spinning and being left unattended for too long, thus not a tight fit anymore) will all contribute to VERY quick failures.





where were you when I had this question?! Bad bearings indeed. I have had failures in less than 50 miles from a new bearing set.... fyi. You might want to consider getting a new hub/knuckle because I let my bearings go for so long that it made the same rubbing on the caliper, then the next bearings failed immediatly and I had to do it all over again... you could also contact stazi, that is where I got mine from... - good luck - JOE
