    Yes, whatever was on the bearing(probably Teflon) disintegrated and there is empty space in there now and they flop around. They probably grounded down extra space inside of the rod end.

    Just got off the phone with King. Yes they are Teflon coated and they recommend greasing them while installing. I also ordered clamping softjaws($150) to remove rod ends without damaging anything. If anyone is in need in the future you can borrow from me. Also ordered the proper size retaining pin pliers.

    edit: rod ends have locktite so need to heat it up with a torch.

    Hmmm. I wonder if those bearings are interchangeable with icons. Mine shit the bed too.

    not sure what my bs/offset is on these wheels.

    trimmed quite a bit of the cab mount, beat the pinch weld flat and trimmed back the bottom 6" of flare and fender.

    Got it. Thanks man. Our of curiousity, how many miles did you get out of the original bearings? I think i'm at less that 30K on mine. I'll have to confirm that. I have it written down somewhere.

    Right about 25k. They said what helps to wear them out is getting wet then dry then muddy then dry, etc.

    FYI, I read more on that page I posted. Lube is good based on our operating environment. Keep reading that thread link I posted to the bottom of the page. Better information from SKF

    ya just for the soft clamps. The other parts are not expensive.

    bearing $15.99
    spacer $8.50
    c-clip $2.50
    rod end $45.00

    I was just going to say after asking the googles that you were right about no lube. Now I don't know what to do LOL

    I would lube as per SKF. I think their directions are more in line with our operating environment based on their comment
