Busted Hubs
 
Bought my truck roughly 3 months ago and noticed the passnger tire had a bad lean to it jacked it up and noticed that the hub was shot, replaced the hub and now not 2 months after replaceing it the same hub completely came apart and tore up the axle shaft in the process of gettin it on the trailer, I replaced the hub and got the truck aligned but it still seems that the passenger tire toe is out, would the 315/70r/17s i have on the truck be the cause of this? has anyone else had this or a simliar problem?

not yet they seem pretty good and just with gettin the axle shaft pretty much broke the bank at the moment

figured out on alot of aftermarket hubs the flanges are machined to far inboard and puch on the diff carrier which then pushes back there for busting a brand new hub in very few miles, so anytime ya replace a hub, spending the extra money with the dealer aint a bad idea

Weird, Ive never ever had issues with aftermarket hubs :pca1:

prolly just a bad batch, but i tool it to dodge to look at and they said another guy had come in with the same problem, and then here recently after i started workin at our local chrysler jeep dealer and 1500 ram came in with the same problem i experinced and one of the techs had put on an aftermarket autozone hub also. So who knows
