Question before I replace my wheel bearing???

So I leave the cv/spindle on the truck and just bring the hub/bearing to get pressed and then repressed (new bearing)???? Just want to make sure... pic shown is all I need to bring to get pressed/unpressed? Then just do the process in reverse?

Buy one from @nj636 Or @BamaToy1997. You'll have better service, better parts, and a better time. It's an easy bolt on solution.

 

Yup^^^^^^^

Easier to buy a whole new kit that get the old one pressed on and off. Save money and time and headache!!

 

I got both moog bearings for 100$ and I have someone to press for 30$ ... just need to know if all I need to bring is in that pic? Or does the cv/spindle come too?

 

No cv or spindle, that all stays on the truck. There's a special way to press them so as long as you follow that you should be set.

 

BamaToy1997 All new parts!
No press required!

 

Prolly will in the future, just saving a decent amount of money this way (savings will=headache prolly lol), but I'm gunna try lol
$330 for fully assembled vs $130ish new moog pressed in original hub

 

Nothing wrong with saving money.

 

I justify it by my hubs look good and moog makes a good wheel bearing assembly ... I had advance auto discounts plus order online, got them with tax around 55$ bucks per a side from $107

 

Bring it somewhere you trust. Press on the wrong part of the bearing and its sure to shorten its life span.

 

Most hubs will be ok to reuse, so I wouldn't worry. When I originally did the write up, it was to save money, and there wasn't anyone making complete ones to throw in. If you had a press you could do it yourself and save a little more money, but 30 bucks isn't bad at all. Hope my write up helped you out.

 

Used it... and worked perfectly!!! ... I'm slightly mechanically inclined, but someone who has no experience what so ever could read those directions and do it! Well done!

 

Just be careful of what the seal surface looks like on the hub flange. I have seen plenty that are pitted badly. This will destroy the seal and/or let dirt into the bearing.

Also make sure the shop is competent on the procedure. If the bearing is not supported correctly the bearing will not survive.

 

you need the seal and I would replace the bolts and o-ring as well.

 

What seal? And I'm illiterate to this whole procedure so what seal and o-ring are you speaking of???

 

SCREW IT... I'm returning my bearings and buying a prepressed kit on here. ... prolly gunna be a lot easier than what I see about to happen lol

 

Make sure to get the extra seals offered with the kit. They go on the spindle itself facing into the truck or c.v. axle. Just so that you have all your bases covered and won't have to worry about leaks or dust and cheap getting it and ruining your bearings.

 

If you want them to actually last a little longer, buy factory. Have already had my 2nd one go bad from buying here unfortunately.

 

Really? Everyone I've heard from says these are awesome kits on here!

 

How in the heck do you get this dust cover off if it's stuck on!!!! I'm on the drivers side disassembling ... and the dust cover is stuck on!!!!
