If that's the case, can I just buy the clips or is that part of the steering knuckle? Eitherway, I guess it's safer to get the whole steering knuckle assy after this one has wasted two bearings.

I replaced it( to the tune of $165) It could have been reused if it were not fot this. The outer bearing race is around 2" wide, but the inner race is two pieces and both need a good surface to be pressed on to .In my opinion, the only way you can really see the damage to the hub is when it is apart.

I had the other side replaced in June for about $145. This time I'll do it myself, but have a shop press out/in the bearing. 96 2.5L SE manual 99 4.6L F150 XLT 4x4
